Adult learners can now sign up for the DeKalb County School District’s program designed to further their education.

Registration will be open through June 28 for the district’s “Adult Education Program: The Next Chapter.” The program helps participants gain the skills needed to take advantage of future educational or career opportunities.

DeKalb’s program will offer GED classes, workforce training opportunities and family literacy sessions. The district also said career transition specialists will help guide participants who want to pursue post-secondary education.
