CAEP 2018-19 Expenditures and Hours of Instruction Report
The 2018-19 CAEP budget bill language included a new data collection requirement focused on improving the information about the return on investment for each of the seven program areas established by AB 104 in 2015.

The report provides an analysis of the quantitative results, a qualitative assessment of the data and reporting process, and recommendations to address the data and reporting process.

ROI into Adult Education is Undeniable!
Fun facts! According to COABE, the adult ed graduate can typically earn close to $10,000 more per year once they get their diploma! The economy is impacted as well. For every 400,000 adults who earn a high school diploma, we gain 2.5 billion back in tax revenue and reduced expenses. That’s $6,250 per person! On top of that, the estimated value to our economy in reduced costs for public support programs for adults with low skills and low literacy levels is $200 billion annually!
