The Bronx Educational Opportunity Center has been serving community residents for the past twenty years. During this time, the Bronx EOC has helped thousands of individuals to better lives through educational advancement, occupational training, and/or the array of support services frequently needed to overcome challenges to personal/family/community improvement.
The Bronx EOC is one of a network of ten educational enterprises throughout New York State. Each serves eligible adults, providing tuition-free services that lead to achievements such as College Entrance, obtaining of a GED, enhanced literacy and/or math skills, and/or career-related preparation, internships and job placement.
Students entering the Bronx EOC should feel comfortable knowing that our staff of instructors, counselors, employment specialists and support staff are well qualified, experienced and committed to student success.
Community leaders and prospective employers are welcome to contact us to visit and learn first-hand about the EOC and how its programs prepare the workforce and community leaders of tomorrow. The Bronx is able to tailor its programs to meet specific needs of a particular employer or industry, and is committed to learning and responding to identified needs.
We are committed to realizing the EOC's potential as a community resource, a partner with other institutions in the bettering of the Bronx, and as a model for community based adult education.
We know that each individual who comes to the Bronx EOC is on a path that does not end when they leave here. Our mission is to equip each student with the skills and self-awareness needed to continue towards a life full of positive achievements.
I hope this website is helpful to you. Like the EOC itself, it should not be the end of your journey of inquiry. Let this be a beginning. Please be in touch to learn more about us.

Interim Executive Director
