Continuing education is sought after by a number of people. Generally speaking, continuing education programs can be divided into two classes. The first is general adult education, including courses taught beyond regular postsecondary education like an undergraduate degree. Adult education can include subjects like English as a Second Language, literacy, vocational training, GED preparation, and other forms of non-traditional education. Continuing education programs in this category may or may not be taught at an accredited higher education institution; some may be taught at vocational schools or local community centers, while others may be at an accredited community college.

The second class of continuing education is intended for licensed professionals to maintain or upgrade licensure. Doctors, lawyers, technology specialists, and any other field in which professional certification is granted often have continuing education requirements. Courses are credit-granting, and a number of them are generally required to meet licensing requirements. These types of continuing education courses are often taught in degree and certificate-granting institutions, sometimes remotely via distance learning.
