About this Event
The U.S. Bureau of Labor Statistics (BLS) reports that earnings increase as educational attainment rises (BLS, 2022). Studies show that high school diploma recipients earn over 25 percent more than those who did not finish high school. BLS data also show that unemployment decreases as education increases. Centro Hispano launched the HiSET Program in 2017 to bridge significant income and wealth disparities for Latinos in East Tennessee.
The program partners closely with adult learners to foster an educational foundation from which graduates can access more workforce opportunities. Our educators are passionate about identifying and meeting educational needs with planning and individual support. Moreover, our team is trained and committed to helping students operationalize educational tools, testing strategies, and resources to optimize educational success and enhance earning potential.
Join us on August 10th at 5:30PM at United Way of Greater Knoxville (1301 Hannah Avenue Knoxville, TN 37921) to celebrate this cycle's hardworking graduates!
