Abstract

Recently, exposed is the process of lifelong learning as a process of individu­als’ continuing education. In this process of education, the individual often faces the dilemma of which educational institution should choose to get an optimal knowledge according to his requirements. In Slovenia, the number of educational institutions has recently increased significantly, and the individual can easily lose an overview upon their content and quality. Therefore, we developed in this article an evaluation model of institutions for adults’ education using multi-attribute decision making methods. On the basis of rules that represents a com­bination of the required values of different parameters, we defined a knowledge base in expert system Dex-i, and we analyzed an individual educational institutions accord­ing to their offer. The article represents usage of decision support model in four chosen educational institutions.
