Adult Education and Literacy

Welcome to the Adult Education Center at Region 9 ESC! The Adult Education Center provides adults with sufficient basic education that enables them to effectively acquire the basic educational skills necessary for literate functioning; participate in job training and retraining programs; obtain and retain employment; and continue their education to at least the level of completion of secondary school and preparation for post-secondary education. 

We have many partners throughout our 11 counties of the North Texas Workforce Board (Archer, Baylor, Clay, Cottle, Foard, Hardeman, Jack, Montague, Wichita, Wilbarger, and Young) that we serve and continually seek to build new partnerships to improve our services and provide classes to the communities that we serve.

Note : We understand that many students are looking for a place to take the official GED Test; however, please be aware that the Region 9 ESC Adult Education Center is not an official testing site. We focus on providing comprehensive prep classes for the Texas Certificate of High School Equivalency (GED Prep Classes), as well as other educational programs like IELCE (ESL), IET, or Transitions to equip you with the knowledge and skills needed to succeed. You will need to locate and schedule your official GED test at an authorized testing facility.

If you are interested in our services, please send us an email at adulted@esc9.net or give us a call at 940-322-6928, ask for Adult Education.
