Regulation and Financing of Continuing Higher Education in England and Spain

A Comparison of Adult Education Governance Structures in National Contexts

Continuing Higher Education (CHE) as a central part of Adult Continuing Education (ACE) is designed differently in countries. When regarded as a multi-level system, the governance of CHE involves actors on different levels and may be located within Higher Education (HE), ACE or even vocational training. Generally, interrelations between these levels is a central research desideratum, in both national and international perspectives. This article applies document analyses to identify relations between the national legal and financial regulations and the provider structures of CHE in England and Spain. Results show that CHE in both countries is primarily regulated within HE and ACE, whereas each country shows strong differences in governancerelated competencies and authorities. This is the first step of an in-depth theoryguided description and comparison of national frameworks and provider structures of CHE in two European countries.
