Partnerships

At Adult Basic Education (ABE), we believe that strong partnerships create stronger opportunities for learners and our community. That’s why we proudly collaborate with a wide network of local organizations to provide accessible, high-quality education and training for adults in Southwest Minnesota.

Our key partners include:

• Southwest Private Industry Council / CareerForce – Connecting learners with employment services, career training, and job placement resources
• Marshall Public Schools – Supporting youth and adult transitions through shared resources and facilities
• Minnesota West Community & Technical College – Offering career pathway programs, credentialed training, and academic support
• Southwest Minnesota State University (SMSU) – Supporting adult learners with higher education connections and community outreach
• Local employers, nonprofits, and community organizations – Collaborating on site-based classes, workforce training, and wraparound services

Through these partnerships, we’re able to offer more than just classes—we provide pathways to meaningful employment, further education, and greater community engagement.
