In this inspiring program we meet three people pursuing their careers in the non-profit sector. Gillian Forbes is contributing to ocean conservation at the controversial Sea Shepherd Conservation Society. Damon Hughes' love for his local indie radio station opened up an on-air position at 3PBS 106.7FM. And Erica Myers-Davis continues her management career at Pahran Mission. The personal stories of these diverse and interesting people reveal how careers in the non-profit sector can combine your values and interests with career goals in a way that is not always possible in the private sector.

Learning is a lifelong activity. Without realising it, adults continually learn throughout their lives in an informal way. However as the population ages, and the nature of jobs and work change, we need to address the perceived barriers faced by many adult learners in more formal situations. In this program we introduce the key principles of adult learning, including learning styles and some specific difficulties faced by older individuals. By understanding the barriers adult learners face, facilitators can help unlock potential advantages, decrease barriers to adult learning, and take advantage of the methods available to best engage and support adults in their on-going education.

Learning is a part of life. We learn many different things in a variety of ways. For educators, it's all about finding the most effective learning styles for each individual to achieve success in the teaching environment. This program describes three main learning styles - visual, auditory and kinaesthetic - and the four personality types that all individuals display. It provides concrete examples of the main styles and encourages all educators to learn more about the composition of their classes. By making the effort to cater for different styles of individual adult learners and varying teaching techniques, teachers and students can experience successful learning outcomes.
