EDUCATIONAL OPPORTUNITIES

Most participants at Lumen have earned their high school diploma; however, those who have not are supported in completing it through several available pathways. For those pursuing further education, we offer academic coaching to help them enroll in post-secondary programs at one of our partnered institutions. Students are encouraged to build a manageable academic schedule—sometimes starting with just one or two classes—to promote long-term success. This thoughtful approach helps reinforce essential skills like time management, effective study habits, and the self-discipline needed for continued academic achievement.

Lumen is situated in a region that provides diverse academic opportunities for young adults. Nearby, the University of North Georgia and Brenau University offer a broad range of courses for those pursuing college degrees. Lanier Technical College, also conveniently located in North Georgia, provides various certificate programs, vocational training, trade courses, and associate degrees. Additionally, tutoring and special accommodations are available to clients as needed to support their success.
