STCC AWARDED $1.17 MILLION TO EXPAND ADULT EDUCATION SERVICES

Springfield Technical Community College received $1,174,200 in state funding to expand adult education services after submitting for a competitive grant.

The Baker-Polito Administration announced historic funding amounts to STCC and 73 other adult education providers and seven correctional institutions in the state. The awards total $250 million over the next five years.

“We are thrilled and grateful to the Baker-Administration for this funding to expand our adult education programs offered to the community,” said STCC President John B. Cook. “I appreciate the successful efforts by Assistant Vice President for Workforce Development Gladys Franco in submitting for this competitive grant. STCC’s funding was among the top 10 largest amounts awarded.”

Statewide, adult education services will expand to new programs not currently funded and provide 5,000 total seats for adult basic education students and more than 16,000 for adult English learners.
