The voice of adult learners is often overlooked in the design of programs that are specifically constructed to meet their learning needs. This article portrays the design of a midwifery re-registration program that commenced with a survey of non-practising midwives. The organisation of the course, together with the processes involved in curriculum building are explained. The adult learner, particularly in a situation where previous knowledge, skills and experience are vital inputs to the design of programs, have been highlighted.
