About Community Outreach & Extension Services

Community Outreach & Extension Services (COES) has been designed to provide the Metropolitan Washington Area population with a wide range of educational and training offerings, some of which are supported by grants or contracts, while others are fee based. These offerings are intended to improve the quality of life for people we serve.

Our services meet the diverse needs of our population. As the city's only public University, we strive to enrich the availability of vocational and academic experiences, including adult education for pre-college populations. It is a goal of COES to meet the unique educational and training needs of the residents of the District of Columbia.
