Why Learning Works

The core motivation behind SBLC is to support the desire in each person to learn and excel to the highest points of her or his abilities and potential. At SBLC, we know that learning can foster an individual’s literacy success, which can, in turn, work to help learners as they develop their career pathways. That’s why we say, “Learning works.”

This innovative model distinguishes itself by offering options to the GED and the National External Diploma Program. Learners are able to attend classes in the morning 9am-12pm and/or evening 5:30pm – 8:30pm, 4 days a week, 12 months a year. SBLC|LearningWorks also addresses critical non-academic barriers to employment opportunity, such as transportation, childcare, reliable housing, mental and physical health.
