The paper presents the key results of research on programs in adult education in the area of the city of Koprivnica. For the purposes of the research, four fundamental institutions of adult education in the city of Koprivnica were selected: Obrtnička škola Koprivnica, Srednja škola Koprivnica, Pučko otvoreno učilište Koprivnica i Obrtničko učilište POUKA. The research was based on two groups of sources - analysis of secondary sources, programs in adult education of selected institutions and a survey questionnaire on the attitudes of teachers employed in selected institutions that implement programs in adult education. The aim of the research is to identify the specificity of programs in adult education within selected institutions in the area of the city of Koprivnica and to highlight the significance of individual institutions for adult education. The first part of the research, the analysis of programs in adult education, was carried out during March 2023, while the second part of the research, the implementation of the survey questionnaire, lasted between April and May 2023. 60 adult education teachers employed at Obrtnička škola Koprivnica, Srednja škola Koprivnica, Pučko otvoreno učilište Koprivnica and Obrtničko učilište POUKA participated in the research. The results show that the Pučko otvoreno učilište Koprivnica has the largest number of adult education participants and that the largest number of educational programs are conducted within the institution. According to the results of the questionnaire, the teachers of Pučko otvoreno učilište Koprivnica are the most satisfied in most of the investigated spheres of the institution's activities - material and technological conditions, organization of classes, cooperation with local self-government units and salary. It is an interesting fact that the teachers of none of the examined institutions are satisfied with the offer of teaching materials in adult education, and less than half of the research participants are familiar with the methodology of creating adult education programs and the Croatian qualification framework.
