The author identifies four key trends in the development of non-formal adult education in Ukraine. The first trend is the division of non-formal adult education into two areas: general cultural and professional. The first direction means the development of the need for education, the formation of the ability to learn independently, to know themselves and their capabilities, to meet intellectual and aesthetic needs. The second direction is related to the development of corporate education and in-house training. The second trend is characterized by the emergence of new institutions of non-formal adult education. These are public organizations and unions, women's organizations, interest clubs, cooperative professional associations, cor-porate universities and academies, etc. The third trend is related to the expansion of the content, forms and methods of non-formal adult education. The author gives a classification of forms of organization of non-formal education: didactic, socio-pedagogical, professionally-oriented, language-linguistic, cultural-artistic. The fourth trend has developed over the past few years. This is the transition of non-formal adult education to an online format. In the domestic market, the number of providers offering mass open online courses is growing. Among them are the Ukrainian online platforms Prometheus and VUM (Open University Maidan)
