The Bridge Program is an adult education and training program that provides the courses, services, and resources you need to excel in your current role and meet your goals – no matter your learning Ievel.

## Courses

You can select from a wide array of [Bridge Program courses](/sites/g/files/omnuum6281/files/2026-05/bridge_program_brochure_0.pdf "Bridge Program Brochure") – ranging from Computer Skills and Business Writing to Pronunciation and English for Speakers of Other Languages (ESOL). Specialty programs, such as U.S. Citizenship preparation and High School Diploma preparation, are also available.

Classes meet on campus, usually once or twice per week, [before, during, and after work hours](/resource/bridge-schedule "Bridge Schedule"), and on Saturdays during the fall and spring semesters, with abbreviated classes and specialized programs in the summer.

## Tutoring Services

You may request one-on-one tutoring if you cannot attend regularly scheduled classes or need additional instruction in English for Speakers of Other Languages, writing, computer skills, or high school diploma preparation.

Tutors are available on the Cambridge and Longwood campuses before and after work hours. To request a tutor, please email [ohr\_bridge@harvard.edu](mailto:ohr_bridge@harvard.edu).

Volunteers are needed to tutor Bridge students one-on-one or to provide professional mentorship. Email [ohr\_bridge@harvard.edu](mailto:ohr_bridge@harvard.edu) to learn more about volunteering.

## Resource Center

If you need a place to study, complete academic assignments, or conduct career research, consider visiting the Resource Center, located on the 3rd floor of 124 Mt. Auburn Street before, during, and after typical work hours. The Center includes a computer lab with internet access.
