KEYS TO THE FUTURE
This week's program was brought to us by Winston Reese, who introduced two ladies from the Carteret Community College Basic Skills Department; Corporate and Community Education. Diane Matlock, the Basic Skills Coordinator, informed our club about the special pprograms they offer to help people achieve their GED or High School Diploma. In today's job market, people need to have one or the other of these to be hired, or even to enter into the military. Some just wish to improve their language, math or reading skills. The Basic Skills department offers Adult High School; GED; Adult Basic Education; Compensatory Education and English as a Second Language classes. Classes are varied as to times and locations, so anyone can include school into their schedule. The staff will even go to a business to work with their employees.
Pamela Brecheisen, who is the ESL/CompEd. Coordinator, shared information about the English as a Second Language and Compensatory Education Classes. For more information you can check in to the Carteret County Web site or call 252-222-6212. They also have info on Channel 10.
Nice job, Winston!
