| Abstract: | Adult education administrators serve diverse constituents in many different spheres. They serve as leaders of basic literacy programs situated in public school districts, leisure education programs in non-profit organizations, and job training programs in community colleges. This study examined the perceptions of administrators of adult education programs to identify the roles, skills, and management tasks they deemed important to their work. Key findings indicate that there is a substantial number of new administrators in the field, and that they identify a high number of skills necessary to meet the demands of the innovative settings in which they work.
