The Center for Adult and Community Services provides an array of tuition-based Workforce Development Training programs that include Healthcare, Technology and Trades. All job training programs require a minimum of six students enrolled to run.
We want all our students to achieve success. It is recommended for successful completion that students enrolling in job training programs have a minimum grade level of 8 in math and reading (equivalent to Grade 8 in school). Funding sources are available through our workforce partners at https://adulted.swboces.org/community_partners. Some programs require a high school diploma to complete certification exams.
Adult & Community Services teacher Keith Mattos had the unique opportunity to work with Karim Xavier Sanjous across two very different but equally challenging environments—the Westchester County Jail, where SWBOCES provides educational programming, and the Mount Vernon Youth Shelter, a partner organization. “His journey is a testament to the transformative power of trust, opportunity, and unwavering support,” Mr. Mattos said.
Held for the first time at Sleepy Hollow High School, the Adult Learning Center Recognition Ceremony honored 50 HSE diploma recipients, 68 new American Citizens and many more English language learners. Surrounded by family members, they were joined by SWBOCES teachers, staff and administrators, who handed out certificates and celebrated students’ unique accomplishments.
"You have the potential to be peacemakers, bridge builders and cultural ambassadors," keynote speaker and Tarrytown Schools Superintendent Dr. Raymond Sanchez said, "the kind of people who make others feel valued, heard and included.”
Instructor Tonia Wright is a shining example of Southern Westchester BOCES’ values in action. She’s known for breaking down barriers and creating opportunities for students and helping them to build brighter futures. “It’s thanks to her that so many of our students have launched successful healthcare careers,” says Betsy Evans, Coordinator of Adult & Continuing Education. “And they go on to serve others, continuing our mission.”
