Gavilan College
Announces New
Website For
Adult Learners
I
f you’ve been out of school awhile and
need new skills, or are trying to help
someone else find local resources, it
can be daunting to know where to begin.
A new website for adult learners now
makes it easy to find what you need:
aces.gavilan.edu. The website, designed
by Gilroy’s award-winning Articulate
Solutions, brings together in one place
all of the adult education opportunities
provided in our region.
Gavilan College is the lead agency
in the regional collaborative. Partners
include Gavilan College Adult Education,
Gavilan College Noncredit, Vision
Literacy, Morgan Hill Community Adult
School, San Benito High School Adult
Education, and Aromas-San Juan Unified
School District.
The website is easy to use, organized
by student goals: “Learn English,” “Earn
High School Diploma or Equivalent,”
“Become a Citizen,” and “Other Classes.”
ACES Consortium Holds First Open House Event
T
he ACES Consortium was formed
through a State of California
grant, AB86, in 2013 when the
California legislature dedicated funds
to the purpose of creating regional
adult education consortia throughout
the state.
The ACES group is planning a
series of open house events for the
community, titled “Dessert before
Dinner.” Cookies and pastries will be
served, and ACES members will be on
hand to provide information about the
programs they offer. The first event will
be April 28, 2016 from 5:30 - 7:30 p.m.
at Vision Literacy in Gilroy. Admission
is free, however guests are encouraged
to bring a children’s book to donate.
