Adult & Community Education

Recognizing that adult learning patterns and needs must be addressed in sensitive and responsible manners, our programs are designed to be comprehensive, supportive and flexible. Rockland BOCES instructors and support staff are dedicated to meeting each individual student’s academic and vocational needs and to the development of self-worth through continuing education.

Our focuses on expanding adult career pathways providing students multiple opportunities, from entry-level, noncredit courses to mid-skill level certificate degree programs. Coursework is aligned with in-demand occupations in the Lower Hudson Valley region in response to the needs of local business and industry.

Whether you seek career training, professional development, adult literacy classes, youth programs or professional growth, we make it convenient and affordable for all students to reach their educational, training, career and personal goals.

Since 1960, Rockland BOCES has developed skilled workers, strong families and successful communities by offering opportunities to learn at every stage of life.
