JCPS Adult and Continuing Education
is proud to provide services on site at the Office of Employment and
Training (OET), conveniently located downtown on the corner of Sixth
and Cedar. Friendly Educational Advisors assist clients with the
necessary referrals for appropriate assessments, as well as for
skills upgrades in basic math, writing, and reading, resume writing,
and online job searching. 
Many opportunities exist at OET not
only for jobs and career paths, but for job training and preparation
as well. Clients are informed of adult education services available
to them such as earning a GED, post secondary preparation, and job
opportunities and promotions with Jefferson County Public Schools
and other local agencies. The adult education instructors also
provide pre-employment assessments for local businesses and
agencies, with classes available for those needing remediation
before or after the testing.
Approximately three thousand clients
per month come through the doors of OET at Sixth and Cedar. Those
needing extra services are guided to the SkillBuild classroom. The
SkillBuild participants have access to the state of the art computer
lab where computer instruction is offered four days a week. The
instructional area seats approximately twenty people and is operated
on a scheduled appointment basis. Parking is convenient and free,
and the location is directly on the bus route.
