Adult education
Adult education attracts people who believe in the value of lifelong learning. The college's
programs in this field 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. It's a vibrant field, fueled by expanding demand
and interests, with a broad range of career possibilities in both the public and private sectors.
