Adult & Continuing
EduCAtion ProgrAm
Academic EducationWe claim program success when individual students
demonst ra te increased reading , wr i t ing and
mathematics skills, earn their GED® diplomas,
and/or improve their ability to read, write, and
speak English. In fulfilling the mission established by
the State Education Department to provide free academic
courses to adults, we utilize Employment Preparation Education
Act (EPE) funding to support instruction in a var ie ty
of formats addressing multiple learning styles among
our participants.
Classroom setting:
The Adult Program provides several day and evening
classes at the St. John Street Education Center (SJSEC)
in Monticello and at other sites throughout the county. The
classes include, but are not limited to, Adult Basic
Education, High School Equivalency Preparation, and
English for Speakers of Other Languages. We offer
managed-enrollment intensive GED® exam preparation
immediately prior to each of our test center’s public
exams. NYS Plus, a joint effort of Sullivan County
BOCES and SUNY Sullivan, assists students in earning
the GED®, as well as transitioning into college. Through
r igorous math and language ar t s prepara t ion ,
learners acquire the skil l-base to test out of the
college’s remedial math and writing courses. Class
sessions of this intensive managed enrollment course
take place on the SUNY Sullivan campus.
2
Distance Learning/Home Study setting:The integration of computer technology and distance
learning into our programs has kept pace with our
students’ need for variety in tools available to assist them
in reaching their goals. The Skills Tutor program is
described by the NYSED as an excellent multi-media,
web-based software program which offers a guided
on-line computer program of home study to qualified
students who cannot attend a traditional class. Teachers
assign and monitor work and tutor in-class as needed. We
continue to offer the packet-based GED® home
study program known as GRASP (Giving Ready Adults
a Study Program). All distance learning and home study
options operate as hybrids of traditional settings
and distance learning formats to enhance student success.
Sullivan County BOCES Adult and Continuing Education Program provides high quality educational, technical and
vocational services to returning adults, out-of-school youth, and those whose primary language is other than English.
Our support services empower families with life skills and citizenship training to forge life-long home, school and
community involvement. Commitment to our mission enables our clients to keep pace in a fast-changing, competitive
world.
