#Who We Are
Originally founded in 1984 as the "Computers and Literacy" program at the Hayden Burns Library, Jacksonville Public Library's Center for Adult Learning (CAL) has helped thousands of adults over the years fulfill their educational goals and gain the skills needed to enter and succeed in the workforce.
Today, we serve over 800 adult students each year - providing 100% free, small-group instruction to Duval residents, 18 and older, who want to improve their English, pass the GED Test, or become a U.S. citizen. Classes are offered online through Zoom, in the daytime and evening, to fit a variety of busy schedules.

- Are you preparing for the GED Test®?
- Do you need to improve your English language skills?
- Want to make sure you're ready for the US Naturalization (Citizenship) Test and Interview?
