Adult Education and Workforce Development
ESOL Classes
At Mercy Center, we help adult participants improve their communication skills in English. Classes are designed for non-native speakers to improve listening, speaking, reading, and writing. We offer three levels:
- Beginners
- Intermediate
- Advanced
We are currently offering in-person classes.
Workforce Development
This program prepares participants for success in finding jobs and excelling in the workplace. Career readiness objectives have been integrated into the curricula of all ESOL courses to underscore the connections between the content covered and workplace success. In addition, the following programs directly facilitate the development of job skills and employment success.
- Skills for Employment Success
A series of workshops organized into three modules: Find the Job, Get the Job, and Get to the Next Level
- Networking Meetings
Helps build and access personal networks to search for jobs.
- Workplace-Contextualized ESOL Classes
Blend language skills, content and contextualized learning resulting in students becoming better English-speakers, but also better workers. We focus on ESOL for Hospitality Workers and ESOL for Healthcare Workers.
- Job Readiness
Provides access to one-on-one job counseling.
