Educating seniors and community stakeholders about the research process and disseminating research findings are key strategic foci of National Seniors Productive Ageing Centre (NSPAC). In order to acheive this goal, NSPAC is involved in a number of educational activities.

For example, NSPAC conducts 'action research' projects in which ordinary people become researchers in order to investigate, understand and change their situation.

NSPAC also  translates research findings into useful, understandable, information for National Seniors members and the community at large. This is done primarily through 50something and Connect, as well as publications produced by NSPAC.

In addition, NSPAC hosts Productive Ageing Forums each year. At these events, NSPAC highlights a particular topic in ageing and provides members, community groups, and government with up-to-date research and information on the topic.
