Community Action Southwest’s (CAS) Adult Education Program, designed to assist Greene and Washington County residents ages 17+ to improve their skills and/or obtain their GED in order to secure employment or to enroll in a trade school or college, is now accepting new students.
A full schedule of classes is in place in the two-county area. Classes are taught every Monday, Wednesday and Friday each week at the Greene, Mon Valley, and Washington CareerLink sites. Additionally, classes are offered in Carmichaels, Burgettstown and Washington on Tuesdays and in Waynesburg and Washington on Thursdays until 7 p.m. each week.
Upon enrollment and orientation, PA-Certified instructors work with students to determine their weekly class schedules. Volunteer tutors are also available to meet with students in local libraries or other neutral meeting locations throughout both counties. Students enrolled in the program are also partnered with a trained case manager who will work with them to help them to find employment and/or to enroll in a trade school or college.
The Adult Education Program is part of the agency’s Community Action WORKS initiative designed to serve its clients in a comprehensive fashion. Addressing adult education, employability, skills, housing and asset development, while creating opportunities and providing support for economic independence is the framework in which client success is realized.
