One of the features of Silver University is its flexible approach to learning. There are no strict frameworks or schedules that would limit the opportunities for adult students. Continuous education of adults performs professional, social, and personal functions.
- The professional function ensures that an adult develops the necessary professional competencies and qualifications, and, as a result, the adult acquires new professional opportunities and increases his labor mobility.
- The social function complements and enriches the process of interaction of an adult with society, the economic sphere, and the state as a whole through familiarization with universal human values, language, culture, new types of activities, modern technologies of social interaction, including information, forming the functional literacy of an adult in various areas (financial, budgetary, language, information, environmental, legal literacy, literacy in the field of housing and communal services, entrepreneurial and other types of literacy).
- Personal function ensures satisfaction of the individual cognitive needs of an adult, his interests, hobbies and, as a rule, accompanies everyday life.
