Adults who started college but did not complete their degrees are invited to a special program at the Georgia Perimeter College's Clarkston Campus.

The “Go Back, Move Ahead” Adult Learner Workshop is part of a statewide effort to get former students to complete their degrees. The program will begin at 11:30 a.m. Saturday, April 25, in the CN building, 555 N. Indian Creek Road, Clarkston, Ga.

 The free information session includes a panel of GPC representatives who can discuss and answer questions about many topics, including:

—What it takes to be admitted

—How to apply for financial aid

—What to expect in a classroom

GPC’s program is part of a statewide campaign by Gov. Nathan Deal to encourage the more than 1 million Georgians who have completed some college to return and finish their degrees. “Go Back. Move Ahead" provides resources for prospective students and makes it easier for Georgians who have started college to go back to school and earn a degree or certificate.

“Go Back. Move Ahead” is part of the state’s “Complete College Georgia” initiative, which launched in 2011. It is projected that by 2020, more than 60 percent of jobs in Georgia will require a college certificate or degree. Presently, however, only 42 percent of the state’s young adults have earned a college credential—creating a need for an additional 250,000 graduates.
