WHAT IS ADULT EDUCATION? WHAT IS GOVT:IMPLEMENTATION ON ADULT EDUCATION.

Adult education is the practice of teaching and educating adults

The Implementation of government schemes on adult education are:-
The National Literacy Mission, launched in 1988, aimed at attaining a literacy rate of 75 per cent by 2007. It imparts functional literacy to non-literates in the age group of 15–35 years. The Total Literacy Campaign is the principal strategy of the NLM for eradication of illiteracy.
The Continuing Education Scheme provides a learning continuum to the efforts of the Total Literacy and Post literacy programmes.
Sarva Shiksha Abhiyan
The  Sarva Siksha Abhiyan (Hindi for Total Literacy Campaign) was launched in 2001 to ensure that all children in the 6–14-year age-group attend school and complete eight years of schooling by 2010. An important component of the scheme is the Education Guarantee Scheme and Alternative and Innovative Education, meant primarily for children in areas with no formal school within a one kilometre radius.
 The centrally sponsored District Primary Education Programme, launched in 1994, had opened more than 160,000 new schools by 2005, including almost 84,000 alternative schools.
