Adult Education
Adult Education at Florida State College at Jacksonville includes a range of instructional programs that help adults get the basic skills they need to be productive workers, family members and citizens.
The major program areas are Adult High School, GED® Preparation: High School Equivalency, Adult Basic Education (ABE) and English for Speakers of Other Languages (ESOL).
