Retirement Reimagined: Learning Later in Life | Australia News
Description
Retirement’s not retiring—older Aussies are flooding back into classrooms, not for degrees but for real-world skills, from AI literacy to bookkeeping, at places like the University of the Third Age, where the average student is 74 and the age range spans millennials to their 90s. With rising costs and shifting priorities, one in three Aussies are still working in their 60s, chasing purpose, connection, and relevance—not just paychecks. Short, practical courses are helping them pivot, stay sharp, and keep contributing, proving age is just a number when you’ve got the drive to keep going.
