To New Adult Immigrants in Alabama: This is an open letter to all new adult immigrants in our state to extend to you the services of Alabama Department of Post secondary Education. Our services range from the basics of learning English to earning an associate degree at one of our local community colleges. Short-term training in areas such as auto mechanics is also available through our Skills Training Division at each college. Admission to Skills Training Division does not require a high school diploma or GED. Outreach to the immigrant population is one way that we are attempting to deliver the message about available services at the community colleges throughout Alabama. An outreach effort through adult education is currently in place for our immigrant population. Six bi-lingual outreach persons are located at community colleges in the state where immigrant population is the most concentrated. The project is designed for outreach through cultural awareness workshops in local communities; media (radio, television and newspapers); interaction with the Hispanic coalitions throughout the state; promotion of post secondary education services; and marketing FREE ESL classes through adult education. Please contact any of the following bi-lingual persons to assist you with your educational needs. They work with the adult education program and will be happy to assist you in locating ESL classes or other services through the community colleges. Sincerely, Bradley Byrne, Chancellor |
