  • A study plan made to meet your individual learning needs.
  • Outreach classes located in community centers close to where you live and work.
  • Small classes with friendly people who are also seeking basic skills to improve their lives.
  • A transition coach to assist you with future plans.
  • Volunteer tutors to give one-on-one attention.
  • Instruction in work readiness and computer literacy skills.
