NEMCC Adult Education has announced that registration is still open for its next round of classes, which begin on Tuesday, September 8. The new session brings a mix of daytime options and the return of evening courses, serving learners across five counties.
Officials say the schedule has been adjusted to meet community needs, with several new day offerings added alongside the reinstated night classes. This change is meant to give more adults a chance to fit education into their work and family routines.
The program covers a range of services, including high school equivalency preparation, basic skills instruction, and workforce readiness training. Adults who are looking to earn a credential, improve their math or reading, or build job-related skills are encouraged to sign up.
Registration can be completed by contacting the NEMCC Adult Education office directly. Staff will help new students with placement and orientation details. Those interested are advised to act soon, as space in some sessions may be limited.
The classes are open to residents in the five-county service area. No prior enrollment is needed, but all new participants must complete the registration process before the start date. For more information on locations, times, or required documents, call the office or visit the NEMCC campus during business hours.
