Los Angeles Public Library :: September Spotlight on Adult Literacy

September Spotlight on Adult Literacy

LAPL Blog: 9.21.2018 by Kelly Tyler, Senior Librarian, Lifelong Learning

September is National Literacy Month and we want to thank all of our volunteers for the amazing and selfless work they do in support of adult literacy. Every day, all across Los Angeles, they take time out of their busy lives to help other Angelenos learn to read.

While the adult literacy program has many different resources, from self-study tools like Cell-Ed and group conversation classes for English language learners, the foundation of our program is the special relationship between a tutor and learner in one-on-one tutoring. Meeting twice a week over months or years, our pairs develop a mutually rewarding bond that allows adult learners to succeed in their literacy pursuits.

The story of Carmen and Lorena is a perfect example of this bond. In their own words, they tell us about their experience:

My name is Lorena Lordanic, I am 25 years old, and a proud adult literacy tutor. I have had the pleasure of being an adult literacy tutor for an entire year. Last February 2017, I was looking for a way to give my time in order to help someone else.

I would like to introduce myself. My name is Carmen Chavez. I'm 67 years old. I'm unemployed now, and I decided to join the adult literacy program at Wilmington Branch Library because I want to get a better job.  READ MORE >>

Carlsbad Library :: Career Online High School Scholarships Are Available!

Career Online High School Scholarships Are Available!

Learning Connection: Sep/Oct 2018

Carlsbad City Library is excited to offer the Career Online High School (COHS) program from Gale Cengage! It is a fully accredited program that allows adults to complete their high school diploma, while also developing career skills in a field of their choice. It’s flexible and convenient, because students can work at their own pace and around their individual schedules.

How do I qualify?

You must be at least 19 years of age or older and have not completed high school.

Is there any cost? How can I get a scholarship?

We award tuition scholarships to applicants on a limited basis. You must first complete a self assessment and a prerequisite course online, then attend an in-person interview at the Library Learning Center to make sure you are a good fit for the program.

What happens after the interview?

Once you have been awarded a scholarship, you will enroll in the high school diploma and career certificate program. Upon completion, you will be invited to participate in the COHS graduation ceremony!

What are the subjects?

English, Mathematics, Social

Studies and Science. Career certificates can be earned in one of ten fields.

How long does it take?

The time limit to complete COHS is 18 months, but you may be able to complete the program in less time, if you transfer credits from existing high school transcripts.

Do I get a high school diploma?

Do I get a career certificate?

Yes! Upon completion of COHS, you will be awarded an accredited high school diploma AND a career certificate.

What if I don’t have a computer?

Carlsbad Library offers free computer use at all three sites with your Carlsbad City Library card.

COHS is not limited to learners in our literacy program, so if you know anyone in the community who would like to earn their diploma, please send them our way!

Get started by completing a brief online self-assessment at gale.com/cadiploma.

If you’d like more information, please ask a Literacy staff member.  READ MORE >>
