Adult Learning & Human Resource Development
The program in Adult Learning and Human Resource Development is designed for professionals who work with adults as learners in a variety of contexts. It includes both Master of Science and Doctor of Philosophy degrees and is offered only at the Northern Virginia Graduate Center.
Graduates of the program work in settings such as private sector corporations, and nongovermental agencies, professional and voluntary associations, the military, and as independent consultants. The program prepares persons for positions related to enhancing learning capability of an individual, organizational, community, national, and international level.
The Masters degree has both a thesis and non-thesis option and addresses development in five domains of professional practice: the facilitator; the designer; the planner; the change agent; and the researcher. The Ph.D. program is no longer admitting new students and will conclude in 2014.
