Second-Chance Education Glossary Definition

Second-Chance Education is education opportunities that allow people who left or missed earlier schooling to reenter learning, gain credentials, or develop foundational skills in Adult Education contexts.

Second-Chance Education is often connected with adult education, literacy, social inclusion, employment, and pathways to further study. In U.S. contexts, compare the term with local adult education, workforce, and credential language before treating it as identical.
