educational demands and requests from citizens, professional and
business groups, and other organizations. The major role of
continuing education is to develop and implement courses for
career and professional development and personal interest and
enrichment. Continuing education courses are offered in an
informal and non-competitive setting. Usually there are no grades,
exams, or prerequisites. Admission to the school is not required.

AWARENESS TRAINING Considering current events, it’s time we become more aware of our surroundings and the possibility of
negative results. This is NOT a physical self-defense course. We encourage all ages, parents, grandparents
and businesses to be prepared. Awareness of your surroundings and avoidance of unnecessary confrontations
and situations can influence outcome. The class discussion will include case studies and a “what if” session
that can ward off unwanted and dangerous situations.
Businesses would benefit from customized scenario training helping employees protect your business and
themselves. Group rates available. Teaching locations available in Swainsboro and Vidalia as well as requested regional business locations.

Georgia Driver’s Education Grant Scholarship Program
Beginning in January of 2017, the Georgia Driver’s Education Commission will begin a new scholarship program in which students
may apply for a driver’s education grant scholarship. The student will apply for the scholarship directly from the Commission through
an online application. Upon award of the scholarship, students will be provided with a redemption code and may choose a provider
from a list of authorized driver training schools to redeem the grant scholarship. The driver training school will redeem the grant
scholarship through an online portal. Once the student has completed the driver’s education course, the provider will upload a copy of
the OCRA certificate to the online portal and request reimbursement for the driver’s education course.
