Established in NSW in 1913, and originally working in partnership with the University of Sydney, the WEA was a movement founded to promote the higher education of working men and women.
The WEA has since grown to become one of the largest and most prestigious adult and community education organisations in Australia and every year attracts thousands of students from all walks of life.
WEA Sydney’s current educational program is very broad and ranges from humanities, languages and arts, to computer, business and vocational training. For those who can’t attend classes in our city-based college, a range of web-based training courses is offered, and in homes throughout NSW, scores of WEA Discussion Groups meet to study and discuss a fascinating range of topics.
