All The Way Up Adult Education Center empowers adult learners in Newark, NJ and greater Essex County through individualized training in High School Equivalency/GED Test Preparation, Adult Basic Education (ABE), English as a Second Language (ESL), and Job Readiness Skills. We partner with community organizations, granters, and individual donors to directly improve the educational outcomes of our students throughout Essex County.

Our classes are taught by knowledgeable and well-qualified instructors, supported by volunteer tutors who help our students one-on-one. We believe that this personalized approach is greatly beneficial to our students as they work to pass their High School Equivalency Test, learn English as a Second Language, or gain valuable skills to enter the workforce through our Job Readiness classes and workshops.
