Abstract: The contemporary financial and social changes demand the constant update of the existent knowledge and the acquisition of new skills especially in the cases of people of low socioeconomic status who have not completed the basic education. The present case study examines the attitudes and perceptions of educators of Schools of Second Chance and in the Evening Junior High schools of the Greek district of Ioannina. In the study educators were asked to answer a questionnaire. The findings show that educators have a sufficient and good knowledge of the educational methods yet it seems that in the Evening High schools the educators are better educated concerning these educational techniques in comparison with those of Schools of Second Chance. The vast majority of the educators think that the application of the methods is very important, 25% of the sample has good knowledge of the available teaching means in the school units while the knowledge of the educators for the application of these techniques is positively correlated with its application in practice. Last but not least, the analysis has shown that the available time affects the use of the educational techniques and that the use of these specific techniques by some teachers increases the possibility of their use from their colleagues.
