Transforming Futures Through Adult Education
Our mission at Yolo County Office of Education is to provide relevant student-centered education, training, and resources that prepare students to successfully transition and pursue their passions.
The purpose of the Adult Education classes is to assist students desiring to complete their adult high school diploma, work towards taking the high school equivalency exam, improve their language skills; increase reading or math skills; and fine-tune their employment skills and career opportunities. Adult Education classes are open entry/open exit courses. Students work independently, allowing them to progress at their own rate. Assistance from the classroom teacher is available as needed.
If you are seeking workforce development support or would like to book a navigation session, reach out to Eric Banuelos.
