The Hall of Fame honours outstanding leaders in the field of adult and continuing education, who are distinguished as a scholar, practitioner, or policy-maker. They serve as an inspiration for the next generation of adult and continuing education leaders.

To be eligible for induction into the Hall of Fame, a person must be eminently distinguished in the profession, shall have brought honor or distinction, and shall have contributed to the heritage of adult and continuing education.

Annually, around 10 adult and continuing education leaders from around the world are selected for induction.

These individuals reflect the great diversity of adult and continuing education practice and scholarship and the increasingly global leadership community that constitutes the IACE Hall of Fame.

The call for nominations for 2023 is out, with a deadline of 01 May 2023. Do not miss the opportunity to nominate colleagues who might deserve it!

Please see the website of the European branch for more details.
