From 1973 until 2019, DVV International has been publishing the Adult Education and Development journal.

The current and last issue entitled "The good adult educator" was published at the end of 2019. Read more...
What makes a good educator? Is there a clearly defined job description and universal standards of competence? How can key competencies be conveyed? What challenges do adult educators face in their daily work and how do they deal with them? How can they be supported in this? Authors from more than 20 countries discuss these and additional questions on the subject of “professionalisation in adult education” in issue 86. They present theoretical models, analyse concrete challenges and describe good practice examples and methods.
Following each print issue of the journal, the International Council for Adult Education (ICAE) offers you the chance to further discuss the topics in a virtual seminar.
