To do so the three basic research questions were formulated and descriptive survey research design were employed. Mixed approaches were used to collect the data. The IFAE centers, facilitators and learners were selected using random sampling techniques and supervisors and adult education directorates/coordinators/ were selected using purposive sampling techniques. One woreda and one town administration were included in the study out of 12 woredas and 2 town administrations by using random sampling techniques. The collected data were analyzed using frequencies and percentages. Some of the major findings were: learners have negative attitudes and they have less interest about the program. Related with facility, budget is not properly allocated to run the program, the learning material is not prepared with learner’s language, regarding facilitators related factors, they don’t have skill of how to facilitate and stakeholder’s integration is very low.
Thus, to improve the situation, it is recommended that: all stake holders should play their own role properly, the responsible bodies should help by supplying the adequate teaching-learning material, and all the stake holders should work cooperatively.
