This book aims to support and facilitate the acquisition of the necessary knowledge and skills required for the certification of educational adequacy as well as for the scientific formation of an Adult Educator.

According to the "Unified System for the Certification of the Educational Adequacy of Adult Educators", organized and managed by the National Organization for the Certification of Qualifications and Vocational Guidance (E.O.P.P.E.P.), the certification of the educational adequacy of prospective Adult Educators includes written exams to assess their knowledge and skills in designing, organizing, and implementing teaching activities based on adult learning theories, educational policies, the socio-economic framework, and the needs of the target population, as well as the basic characteristics of the group of learners.

The book provides the basic guidelines for studying these topics with selected excerpts from the Adult Education series, published by Metaichmio. The excerpts have been selected based on their direct relevance to the content of the thematic units of the E.O.P.P.E.P. Question Bank and the indicative answers contained therein. The thematic units are organized into sub-units to facilitate the understanding of the corresponding educational material, while they are also enriched with additional elements to adequately cover the knowledge and skills required for certification.

Additionally, because the certification process includes the design and presentation of a micro-teaching session combined with a corresponding oral examination, the Guide is complemented by a relevant section describing the practical application of designing and implementing a micro-teaching session.
