(Merrill, WI) Since July 1, 2009, nearly 180 Merrill residents have participated in the free basic educational opportunities offered at the Northcentral Technical College (NTC) Learning Center/Merrill Adult Diploma Academy.
The partnership between NTC and the Merrill Adult Diploma Academy provides instruction for adults who want to complete a high school diploma or study for the GED/HSED. Instruction is also available for adults to increase basic skills in reading, writing, math, and computer basics for college entrance, employment, or self-improvement.
The NTC Merrill Learning Center has been an important part of my schooling for the completion of my GED. I have found this facility such a great benefit towards the learning of my courses, through the great teachers that I have worked with here, always there to help whenever I had problems understanding, stated Marilyn Schmidt, NTC Learning Center student. I personally have had great success with their type of learning instruction and one-on-one help.
Those seeking employment can get help at the academy writing cover letters, resumes, and practicing mock interviews. A job seeking-skills course will be offered December 1, 3, 8, and 9 from 6:00 p.m. 8:00 p.m.
