Abstract

<p>  Non Profit Organizations (NPOs) are concerned with both public administration and competitive markets, but do not always provide opportunities for learning. We need to distinguish social function and learning in each NPO. Original knowledge and technology possessed by an NPO is related to the specialization of adult learning in recent years In this paper, I try to divide NPO into four types, and to formulate a model of empowerment. I consider professionalism in NPO's learning as a condition of empowerment model </p><p>  Professionalism in NPOs can be understood as the ability to secure the participation of clients in NPO's service. Included in the learning process of professionalism, there is a learning network, administration, market and universities around the NPO. This network as social capital brings about politicization, and changes the functions each social sector have, so providing important opportunities to create alternative societies witih new social values, participation and solidarity.</p>
