Title II Adult Education and Literacy

These programs focus on enhancing the fundamental skills of adults, contributing to the educational dimension of the one-stop delivery system. They deliver instruction in literacy, numeracy, English language learning, and other educational services. The primary objective is to address the basic skills and English language requirements of individuals and job seekers accessing One-Stop Centers. Title II programs employ CASAS testing to assess the basic skill levels of adult job seekers. They then connect these individuals to training programs related to literacy, computer skills, high school completion, and English language acquisition. Classes are available both online and in person to accommodate students' accessibility needs, ensuring they can pursue education through AEL programs in a manner that suits their preferences and requirements.
