Welcome to the Elderhostel Institute Network

The Elderhostel Institute Network (EIN) is a voluntary association of Lifelong Learning Institutes (LLIs), funded by Elderhostel Inc., a not-for-profit organization dedicated to providing educational opportunities for older adults. EIN exists to promote communication and provide resources to existing LLIs, and to encourage the development of new LLIs. EIN does not prescribe fees or approve curriculum; those decisions are made independently by each LLI. Because LLIs are for local participants, all advertising and registration are handled locally by each LLI.
