A number of problems are described: between goals, content, forms of organization, conditions of adult learning activities, since the demand for adult education has gained a new highest level in Ukraine in connection with European integration processes. The author of the article analyzes the problem of improving the foreign communication skills of adults as the main condition for increasing their competitiveness in the international labor market, giving them the opportunity to adapt to changing conditions of life. Such education is aimed at the adaptation and rehabilitation of social and professional groups that can not adapt themselves to a rapidly changing social environment. In addition, this subsystem involves citizens who, for various reasons, do not have access to the formal system of
vocational education, which creates a threat to them for de socialization.
