This study explored the lifelong learning experiences of successfully re-employed middle-aged and older adults in Taiwan. Semi-structured, in-depth interviews were conducted with 20 middleaged and older adults to understand their reasons for reemployment, their learning experiences, and the Eene¿ts of re-entry into the workplace. The results revealed that middle-aged adults, especially women, interrupted their careers for family reasons. They chose torestart their careers after achieving family goals and for ¿nancial reasons. Lifelong learning is the key to restarting a professional career, including formal, informal, and non-formal learning activities. This study provides ways to assist middle-aged adults to re-enter the workforce or change careers, improve their con¿dence and competitiveness, gain recognition, and expand career prospects.
