Adult education

The college's programs in adult education prepare educators to work in community schools, county or state programs, recreational settings—anywhere adults come to seek further knowledge and life enrichment opportunities.

Adult educators help students learn to apply skills they already have in new ways. They teach every subject imaginable—reading, English as a second language, computer use, foreign languages, international studies, writing, or art.

Program highlights

Career options: Graduates leave the adult education program prepared for a broad range of career possibilities in both the public and private sectors.
