He received his Ph.D. in linguistics in 2000 and has conducted numerous research projects over the years in areas such as pragmatics, interactional sociolinguistics or discourse analysis.

Henning Salling Olesen is Professor at Roskilde University, Denmark. He has had formal posts (pro-rector and rector 1978-81 and 2006-10) in the University, engaged in academic organization. From the early 1980's, he focused on adult and continuing education research, and developed close relations with trade unions and popular education, and engaged in policy development around adult workers' rights to education and training, which is still ongoing today. Through organising adult education research, he connected with European networks in this field, including with colleagues at Tampere University, and later, was involved in the European Society for Research in the Education of Adults (ESREA), chairing the organization from 1999-2013. Since 2010, he published a European journal in this field, RELA, and was also involved in founding the Graduate School in Roskilde University in 1997. Apart from a university leadership period a few years ago, he has mainly been involved in doctoral education, including academic collaborations with researchers in China and Brazil.
