Adult Education is a federal and state program that provides basic education skills at no cost to individuals who are 16 years of age and older and not enrolled in school.

The major components of AE include GED preparation for those without a high school diploma, basic skills for those who need to improve in a specific area or enhance their life skills, English as a Second Language for residents who wish to learn to speak, read and write English and citizenship classes for those wishing to become a United States citizen.
