A description is provided of the development, students, program offerings, personnel, and funding of LaGuardia Community College's (LCC) Continuing Education Programs for Deaf Adults (PDA). First, introductory material describes the postsecondary educational options available to deaf adults, and highlights the community college's emerging role as a major point of educational access for deaf and hard-of-hearing individuals. Next, background information on the LCC delivery model is provided, highlighting the uniqueness of LCC's use of staff fluent in American Sign Language and other communication modes to provide preparatory education, and academic and career counseling for deaf people, along with other key factors within the program's delivery system.) The next section looks at the results of LCC's assessments of the counseling and educational needs of deaf adults in 1975, and its survey of the continuing education needs of hearing-impaired adults in 1980. An overview of the growth of the PDA is presented next, including discussions of the use of the Telecommunication Device for the Deaf to provide college and community information; the importance of the assessment of a student's communication mode in providing appropriate interpreter services; and the development of individualized instructional approaches. After reviewing ways of creating favorable learning environments, the paper explains the sources of funding for the PDA program. Finally, concluding comments underscore the importance of ongoing evaluation and staff and college support. (LAL)
