Mobile English Cell-Ed Contract Extension

The New York State Department of State, through the NYS Office for New Americans (ONA), is extending its current contract with Cell-Ed. Cell-Ed is a mobile device tool that helps ONA clients learn English or Spanish while building skills for life and work. No internet or data plan is required, as Cell-Ed is available via dial-in. Cell-Ed is also available via WhatsApp. Currently, ONA has over 2,000 new Americans using Cell-Ed statewide. Users can learn at their own pace, anytime, and anywhere through 3-minute lessons with real-life examples. These lessons are organized into courses, and users can earn certificates of completion.
