    Why Adult Education is Important in South Carolina?

To support South Carolina’s economic growth and ensure South Carolinas are gaining long-term employment in high-demand fields that provide sustainable wages, more adults must earn post-secondary credentials, from short-term certifications to associate degrees – and beyond. Rock Hill Adult Education is the starting point for a significant number of adults who need to build their academic and employment skills for today’s workforce, including those who must earn a GED® diploma before they move forward to training programs and post-secondary education.
