1 Employer overrode other types of instructional providers; see the glossary for more detail on instructional providers. 2 This category includes courses in basic education, personal awareness/improvement, and physical education/leisure. NOTE: The estimates in this table were based on information that was collected on up to four work-related courses taken in the 12 months prior to the interview. If an adult took more than four courses, four were sampled for data collection. Detail may sum to greater than 100 percent because participants may have taken more than one course.
