Access and Success for Adults (ASA) offers free classes using the “Your Place” for the Adult Learner curriculum. Class location is at the Adams/Brown Community Action Program’s (ABCAP) Building in Georgetown.
This program provides essential support for class participants by assisting any single parent or individuals-in-transition in deciding upon a career path, attaining higher education and/or employment for the betterment of their families and society as a whole. Funders include Southern Ohio Center of Excellence, United Way of Greater Cincinnati and General Electric’s Community and Service Fund at the Peebles Test-Site in Adams County.
A past participant, Kim, of Georgetown stated that she has been in the home rearing her three children and thought that was all there was for her in her future … that is until she enrolled in and completed the “Your Place” class. She tested high on her GED predictive and is planning on attending college once she gets her GED. She stated that a whole new world has opened up for her. This class will help in discovering personal strengths and values and increasing self-esteem. A Resource Lab is available for student support; staff is there to help participants in navigating through e-mails and typing career development correspondence, as well as giving encouragement needed to achieve goals set during class.
Residents from the area can enroll in the course free of charge; books and professional resumes are also provided. Participants are presented with various guest speakers throughout the six-week period. If you would like to explore career options, colleges, or your strengths and values, this is a great place to begin! The next class will be offered at the ABCAP Building in Georgetown beginning Jan. 9 and ending Feb. 15. The 6-week class operates on Mondays and Wednesdays from 9 a.m. to 3 p.m. with an hour lunch break. Upon successful completion, participants receive a Certificate of Completion and continued support from the staff which includes Sue Evans, Patty Short, and Linda Cornwell.
