GAEA Vision

Our vision is of an association made up of public and private universities, colleges and technical institutes, libraries, departments of state government, business and industry, professional associations/organizations and any other group or individual involved in the continuing education and training of Georgia citizens. We envision a professional association that will promote, develop, and interpret adult/continuing education and training in Georgia. The association will facilitate communication and interaction among groups and individuals engaged in the field of adult/continuing education and training. The association will foster the coordination of existing resources and services and work to establish new resources and services in order to better meet the adult/continuing education and training needs of Georgia citizens.
