Adult Basic Skills Mission
The mission of the Adult Basic Skills program is to provide an accessible educational experience that supports student success and enhances the lives and well-being of its students, assists with transitions to post-secondary education, and develops the skills necessary to help students achieve their goals, and participate and thrive in today's workforce and community.
"We are always happy to assist any future students, of all ages, get their foot in the door to pursuing their education." — Anna Mewes, Student Services Specialist

Adult Basic Skills has been a foundational tenant of Central Oregon Community College since the 1950's. Read more about how our program is reaching out to branch campuses and our neighboring communities.
“It took some work, and life gets busy, but having a campus in town made it work. The teachers were always there for us, and really made it easy for us to be there.” - Karl Keating, Prineville student
