WSWHE BOCES offers several opportunities for adults who wish to retrain or brush up on skills.

Daytime CTE Programs
Adults learn alongside high school students on a space-available basis. Classes are 2.5 hours in length and are held Monday through Friday. Adult students may choose to attend the morning session or the afternoon session. Classes follow the regular school calendar and holidays. Some CTE programs, like Practical Nursing, offer adult-only daytime CTE classes.

Evening Classes
Adult Continuing Education classes range from CTE programs to arts and crafts, fitness, finance, and business. They are usually held at night at the Myers Education Center, the Southern Adirondack Education Center, the Gick Road Conference Center in Saratoga or 21 Bay Street in Glens Falls.
