Abstract	This essay provides a profile of an interdisciplinary master's program whose curriculum supports current and future adult educators seeking employment opportunities in higher education, adult literacy education, adult English language instruction, writing centers, and secondary education. A faculty administrator and five former graduate students collectively present an overview of the master's program while also providing experience-based narratives on program participation. Curricula for two graduate courses--a basic writing graduate course and a course focused on teaching adult writers--are profiled and then commented on by former students who reflect on the roles these courses played in their educational lives and professional futures.
