New Heights Career Development Center
The New Heights Career Development Center is home to the Scotlandville Adult Learning Center, an official adult education site of East Baton Rouge Parish School System, which provides individuals with preparation for the High School Equivalency Test (HiSET). Our strategy is a dual focus on career development skills which increase both work readiness and continuous career growth; which in turn, eliminates cycles of generational poverty.
New Heights Career Development Center also features:
- Partnerships with colleges and employment agencies to increase the chances of students entering the workforce
- Standardized Test Prep for ACT/SAT, PRAXIS, ASVAB, and other educational and career examinations
- Career Services such as resume and job search assistance, interview coaching, and career and college advising
Most programs are offered at no charge by the Adult Education Department.
Currently HiSET, classes are available from 8:30am-12:30pm, Monday through Friday, for a total of 20 classroom hours. Please click here or call 225-356-1101 to get enrolled.
