OVERVIEW
The
Adult Learning Center provides individuals 16 years of age
and over, who are out of school, the opportunity to further their
academic skills. These skills allow for continued advancement in
family, occupational, and educational activities. The individualized
design allows students to enroll in the program at any time and to
progress at their own rate. While the Adult Learning Center at LCSC is
the primary provider of GED preparation and testing in the region,
academic remediation is available to any out-of-school adult desiring
to brush-up on their skills.
