Welcome to the Durango Adult Education Center!

The Durango Adult Education Center is an independent, non-profit organization that has been dedicated to providing educational resources for adults, seniors and youth in the Durango area for 26 years. Through fundraising, grants and partnerships with other organizations, we are able to provide affordable educational services to our community.

GED, ESOL, and tutoring are offered for a $20 registration fee. Community Education classes are available for an affordable enrollment fee.  If you want to brush up on a few subjects, learn to speak a new language, learn computer skills, or earn your GED, feel free to contact us or stop by the Center.  We are located on the 3rd floor of the Commons building, next to Albertsons.

The mission of the Durango Adult Education Center, as a caring learning community, is to fill educational gaps by equipping adults, children, and families with the skills and knowledge necessary for 21st century careers, post-secondary education, and social and economic mobility.
