Become Job-ready Through Free Training and Support

Adult Education Career Pathways programs combine learning, financial assistance, and support services to help you begin training for a rewarding career, even before you’ve earned your high school equivalency certificate.

Who Can Enroll

Career Pathways programs are free and available to ACC students taking high school equivalency classes, English as a Second Language (ESL) Level 2, 3 and 4 students, and adults facing other education barriers. Some Career Pathways programs require students to be co-enrolled in high school equivalency or ESL classes. If you drop those courses, you may not be eligible for free career classes.
