What’s New at Newport Adult Learning Centers
New Direction for Adult Education Statewide
Adult Education has adopted a “New Framework for Adult Education” This framework is encouraging Learning Centers to schedule enrollment times for new students and to provide scheduled small group Reading, Math and Writing classes. We have implemented these directives in our Dayton and Newport locations and are seeing success.
The Fastest Results Ever
Students now register for the Official GED test online. This allows them to receive their scores via the Internet the day after they complete the GED test. Our students have really enjoyed such quick results.
TABE and Official PreGED Testing
The TABE and Official PreGED testing are now scheduled for Tuesday evenings at 5:30pm and Monday, Wednesday and Friday at 10:30am. We have found we can create a much better testing environment for students by scheduling this testing and using a “quiet” room.
JRA Classes
Starting February 1, 2008 we started Job Readiness Classes. These classes are designed to assist people who are having trouble finding and keeping a job. Interested parties can schedule for the classes through the Dept. for Child Based Services or call our Learning Centers. Classes will include GED study, job search skills, resume writing, and computer classes.
