Adult Education

The adult basic education program provides instruction in reading, writing, and mathematics that will assist in preparation for achieving a passing score on the HI-SET Assessment. You will be given an individual assessment to determine exactly what you need to study to pass the assessment. Based upon the results, your instructor will prepare a specific learning plan designed to help you achieve your goals. You will be able to study at your own pace with the help of an instructor…all in a supporting and friendly environment for adult learners.

Adult Education classes focus on the basic academic skills of reading, writing, critical thinking, and problem solving and offer small-group, whole-group, and individual instruction. A multisensory approach incorporates different learning styles. Classes are offered at no cost. You must be an Indiana resident and have a valid Indiana state ID or drivers license to receive services. 

We also offer a free Paraprofessional Certification class. If you have less than two years of college, the state of Indiana requires you to pass the ETS Praxis ParaPro Assessment. This course will teach you the skills required to pass the Parapro Assessment. Students must already have a high school diploma or GED/HSE and be over 18 years old. You must be an Indiana resident and have a valid Indiana state ID or drivers license to receive services.
