PVAEC has a program that makes it easy to take high-quality, noncredit online courses. We have partnered with ed2go to offer hundreds of online, instructor-led courses and are pleased to announce the launch of "Advanced Web Pages."
Participants will master advanced Web design skills as they create Web pages using CSS and HTML (including new HTML5 elements). They'll learn how to add interactivity and animation to their sites, and how to create pages that work in any environment from a desktop computer to a mobile device.
This course is part of PVAEC's growing catalog of more than 300 instructor-facilitated online courses. Through well-crafted lessons, expert online instruction, and interaction with fellow students, participants in these courses gain valuable knowledge at their convenience. They have the flexibility to study at their own pace combined with enough structure and support to complete the course. And they can access the classroom 24/7 from anywhere with an Internet connection.
New sessions of each course run every month. They last six weeks, with two new lessons being released weekly (for a total of 12). The courses are entirely Web-based with comprehensive lessons, quizzes, and assignments. A dedicated professional instructor facilitates every course; pacing learners, answering questions, giving feedback, and facilitating discussions.

We are looking for migrant and seasonal farmworkers and loggers who are trying to earn their GED. Through the Maine HEP grant you can be provided with:
- Transportation & childcare reimbursement
- Links to health and social services
- A stipend of $100/week to cover personal expenses while attending GED classes
- Books and school supplies
We’re looking for people who have done at least 75 days of farm or logging work over the last 24 months. Examples of qualifying farm work are blueberries, potatoes, dairy, poultry, tipping and logging. For logging, qualifying work includes: planting, trimming, de-limbing, and harvesting. As long as it’s not processing (working in a paper mill, chipping factory etc) it counts!
Immediate family members of the seasonal worker can participate. This includes: a spouse, a parent, step-parent, adoptive parent, foster parent, or anyone with guardianship, any person who claims the individual as a dependent on a Federal income tax return for either of the previous two years, or resides in the same household as the individual, supports that individual financially, and is a relative of that individual.
Please don’t hesitate to call to see if an activity counts. Anyone who qualifies for Migrant Education Programs and people who participate in the National Farmworker Jobs Program (NFJP) are automatically eligible.
Call PVAEC at 564-6525 to see if you qualify for this program!
