The Learning to Work Centers and Young Adult Borough Centers are part of the Department of Education’s commitment to provide overage and under-credited students with multiple pathways to graduation.
   
 
The Learning-to-Work program assists students in overcoming some of the obstacles that impede their progress toward a high school diploma and assists them with pursuing post-secondary employment and/or education. The program provides enhanced academic supports and youth development support services, meaningful career and educational exploration experiences, work preparation and skill development, and internships. After students complete all required course work and achieve required scores on the Regents examinations, they receive a diploma from their sending school. The program is open to students age 17 1\2 to 21 years of age with a minimum of 17 credits towards high school.
   
 
Students who are enrolled in Thomas Jefferson's YABC attend classes up to five evenings per week and receive tutoring, counseling, job and career development. They participate in workshops and get support that helps them prepare for college, meaningful employment, healthy personal relationships, and life after high school. Students have access to tutoring and student support services before school hours and have the opportunity to participate in weekend academic and extracurricular activities.

YABC students graduate with a diploma from their home school after they have earned all of their credits and passed all of the required exams.
