Basic Education Services

Basic Education is designed to help people succeed in college, on the job, and in daily living. Individualized education and group classes are offered at Green Bay, Marinette, and Sturgeon Bay campuses and at Regional Learning sites. Basic Education classes can help students develop the necessary skills to achieve specific goals, such as:

• Preparing to enter college
• Succeeding in courses
• Keeping a job, or preparing for a new job
• Earning a High School Equivalency Diploma (HSED) or General Education Development (GED®) certificate
• Learning English as a Second Language (ESL)
• Reaching personal goals

All members of the public are welcome to use any of the services which meet their needs. There are no Admission requirements for Basic Education services.

GETTING STARTED

Individuals will be evaluated to determine their strengths and areas for improvement.
The student and a counselor or instructor will develop a Personal Education Plan (PEP) based on the student's assessment results, goals, learning style, and abilities.
