Advancing CA Adult Education Model Program

El Monte Rosemead Adult School's Electrician training program was established in August 2016. Since its establishment, it has undergone significant growth. The Electrician program leads to certification and licensure to meet the demands of the growing industry, which is facing a severe shortage of trained electricians. The Electrician program was designed to meet the needs of this growing industry by considering factors such as job outlook, community demographics, and the expansion of CTE programs. EMRAS created an educational pathway that provides students with valuable knowledge, skills and opportunities for a career as certified electricians.

EMRAS recognized the need for skilled electricians based on an 18% increase in employment opportunities in California in various sectors such as residential, commercial and industrial construction; and designed a curriculum that includes electrical theory, knowledge of codes, practical skills and best practices required to excel in the field. EMRAS's Electrician program is accredited by the State of California Department of Industrial Relations and recognized by IBEW as a superior training site.

CAEP National Briefing on High-Impact Practices

February 26th 10:00 a.m. PST

In partnership with the Chancellor’s Office, the California Department of Education, and CAEP Leadership, an independent research team led by Dr. Barbara Endel was commissioned to collect evidence-based high impact practices from 12 of CAEP’s strongest programs. The intent was to document what is working well and how other programs in and outside of California can use the research for continuous improvement.

The project resulted in a set of exciting findings from interviewing 12 CAEP exemplars in Fall 2023. These findings merit CO/CDE/CAEP to share what is working with a national audience interested in knowing what California is doing well. Register for this webinar through the link below!
