The introduction provides the unique professional preparation of the author in both fields for merging counseling and andragogy – the art and science of helping adults learn. Providing general counseling information, he then gives a sketch and time gaps of publication in adult education and counseling. Next, he presents a chronology of publications merging the two fields. In the future trends section, a comprehensive model for counseling in adult education is constructed, including: an andragogical approach, dimensions of maturation, closely connecting counseling and learning, with life tasks, challenges, and dealing with our human values and priorities within human systems of adult life. Examples are articulated of both the professional and learner implementing the model.

There has been a great deal of research conducted to examine the alleged gap between the knowledge and skills taught to students regarding the tools used to design and implement information systems and those tools actually required in industry. However, not as much effort has been put into determining the actual use of those tools. This research examines what tools and procedures are actually being utilized in the creation of information systems in industry. Utilizing semi-structured interviews, a much different view of systems design procedures emerges than what students are led to believe are actually used. The prevalence of “home-grown” processes, or sometimes no definable processes at all, can have a serious impact on employee productivity and, ultimately, a system’s ability to fulfill its strategic objectives.

In this article are discussed the main prospects of development of cryptocurrency in Singapore, as it is widespread and used all over the world. The article covers the main points for the regulation of the cryptocurrency. There is a wide range of cryptocurrency trading platforms, and most of them are located in different countries, which leads to significant differences in terms of regulation by the authorities and, accordingly, different rules for users and companies. Several exchanges allow trading derivatives. A more detailed review would give a correct impression of the current situation in the world in terms of regulation of cryptocurrencies and future trends. Cryptocurrencies continue their development; the number of users of cyber money is steadily growing. The popularity of bitcoin has generated the creation of other cryptocurrencies that are developing along with bitcoin, but their popularity and capabilities are much less. In some countries, including Russia, the government started warning people that investing in “cash” equivalents could lead to losses in case if there is a collapse of cryptocurrency (bitcoin).

The problems and difficulties in complex systems design are more subjective and ambiguous than commonly acknowledged and soft systems tools and frameworks can help to address gaps in knowledge and support judgement throughout the design process. This paper describes the application of the PEArL framework, an intellectual device based on systemic principles, to support a team in a complex product environment manage the ‘soft' challenges in complex systems design. The PEArL framework facilitated the creation and management of inter-disciplinary relationships in a pressurised business environment and provided a structure for validation of the way in which the design process had been undertaken.
