Interested in helping adults acquire literacy skills and promote lifetime learning?
The goal of the Adult Education program is to help adults acquire literacy skills and promote lifelong learning in our learners. To accomplish these goals, we work closely with the learner in establishing successful learning experiences, promoting positive self-image and self-confidence, and improving competency in literacy skills by setting and obtaining learning goals.
