Prince George's Community College offers a sequenced program of basic skills instruction for adults. Classes are offered to help students develop skills necessary to pass the GED exam, succeed in the workplace, and enhance their participation as community and family members.

Weekday evening and morning classes are scheduled each Fall, Spring, and Summer.

  • In-person registration is required. Call 301-322-0891 for registration dates.
  • Registration is usually held in mid-January, at the end of June, and in early September.
  • Students are given a placement test and enrolled in the appropriate level of classes on a first-come, first-served basis.
  • Class sizes are limited.
  • Most classes begin the week after registration and continue for 60 hours of instruction.
  • Regular class attendance is expected.
  • A multimedia/tutoring lab is available at Bladensburg Instructional Center (BIC) for enrolled PGCPS Adult Education students to supplement their classroom instruction and for wait-listed students on a space-available basis. Wait-listed students placed at the GED level have priority.
  • Students must be over 16 years of age and not enrolled in a regular high school program.
  • Students must adhere to the PGCPS Adult Education Code of Conduct.

Please note: Classes fill quickly!

To ensure enrollment, plan to arrive early on the first day of registration. You can register only on the days and times indicated for each semester. No registrations or reservations will be taken prior to the posted dates and times.

All new students will be scheduled to take a placement test before they can be enrolled in class. Placement tests are usually given at the time of registration and take at least one hour to complete.

You must register at the location where you wish to attend classes!
