Our Adult Basic Education program is called the “College Readiness Institute." It prepares students to pass the GED as well as to succeed in their postsecondary education goals, including college. Students receive CCRI developmental education courses in reading and math, as well as courses in writing and computer literacy, in order to first earn a GED and and then be prepared to enter college, a trade school, or a certificate program. The program also provides transitions to college workshops that cover study skills, orientation/exposure to campus; application and financial aid assistance; career planning and its relation to programs of study; assessment strategies and preparation for GED and Accuplacer. The program also includes extensive academic and support services for students to help them reach their educational goals.
