Popis: India has initiated different Adult Education Programmes viz., Literacy, Post Literacy and Continuing Education for promotion of literacy, functional skills and awareness to convert the vast masses as human capital and to invest them in the economy to accelerate the pace of its development. The success of the programs not only depends on the effective planning, material support and financing but depends on the adult education teacher who is the actual doer of the programme at the grass root level. The performance of the teachers depends on their background characteristics and training received by them. In the light of the above, the present paper examines the background characteristics of the teachers involved at various levels of adult education programmes and the nature of training received by them.
