WNY Adult Education Consortium
The WNY Adult Education Consortium is an association of WNY colleges and universities committed to assisting adult learners returning to the classroom. As more and more adults continue their education, WNY Adult Education Consortium member institutions of higher learning are recognizing the unique challenges individuals face and are addressing their concerns. Each WNY Adult Education Consortium institution provides a comfortable atmosphere and flexible programming to make re-entry into education as smooth as possible.
