Taking a Citizenship Class?

What You’ll Learn and Prepare for

The path toward becoming a U.S. citizen means gaining knowledge and understanding of basic facts about American culture and society, including:

• The court system
• The responsibilities of a U.S. citizen
• How the American government works
• U.S. history
• The Constitution
• The different branches of government
• How laws are made

Taking a citizenship class offers you a chance to gain this knowledge from an experienced instructor in a step-by-step process that will also prepare you for the necessary tests and interviews required to complete the citizenship process.
