CAEP Integrated Education and Training Research Brief and Webinar

The CAEP Technical Assistance Project (TAP) contracted with High Road Alliance (HRA) to listen to adult education practitioners about their experiences leading, building, and delivering IET programs, to glean lessons for the future of IET in California. This brief begins with a summary of the reasons providers offer IET, followed by an overview of the diversity of program structures, partnerships, occupations, and funding models seen among the providers who participated. The next section describes themes and promising practices that were heard during the interviews and listening sessions, related to each of the topics above. The brief concludes with recommendations drawn from the interviews and listening sessions to sustain and scale high-quality IET programs in California. Access the full report by clicking on the link.

One Week Left! Nominate a CAEP Model Program
|
|
At the CAEP Summit 2021, the CAEP Office and CAEP TAP recognized 14 adult education agencies and consortia who had exemplary model programs. A model program recipient included our friends from the Riverside Adult School and the Riverside Unified School District. The adult school and district office partnered to implement the Job Skills - Substitute Preparation Program to address student challenges with obtaining employment and the shortage of substitutes in the district. Since the program’s inception in 2018, 320 adult learners have completed the program and have been hired by the district.
Nominate a CAEP model program today! The CAEP model program recognition is still open. However, it will not be open long as we prepare for recognition at the CAEP Summit 2022. Adult education practitioners are always interested in learning from other programs across the State. The CAEP Office and CAEP TAP provides the Advancing CA Adult Education Program platform for you to demonstrate innovative, emerging, and model practices. We are aware of some of the amazing strides programs and learners are making in adult education. It is now time to share with the rest of the State and be recognized for the wonderful work taking place.
To submit, model CAEP programs must be aligned to approved CAEP program areas and the adult education state priorities: learner transition, program development, equity, leadership, technology and distance learning, program evaluation, and marketing. The adult education state priorities align with the CCCCO Vision for Success goals and the CDE Superintendent’s Initiatives.
Access the model program nomination webpage to learn more about the nomination criteria, scoring rubric, and more. Nominations for a chance to recognized at this year’s summit close August 26, 2022.

Agency Information for Get Connected! California (High Speed Internet)

The California Broadband Council (CBC) issued a “Call to Action” in March 2022 to get online with high-speed Internet service to 90% of all eligible low-income households by 2024. In response to this Call to Action, the California Department of Technology (CDT), California Department of Education (CDE), California State Library, California State Association of Counties (CSAC) and California Emerging Technology Fund (CETF) are coordinating a statewide mobilization to promote the Affordable Connectivity Program (ACP) called Get Connected! California. These State Agencies and statewide organizations (the Get Connected! Coalition) will promote information about ACP to the 5M+ eligible households in California. The direct communications and strategic mobilization is focused on August 2022 as the first Get Connected! Month when students are returning to school.
For the eligible households interested in applying for ACP and needing assistance completing the application, enrollment events will be hosted throughout the state on the first Get Connected! Day, Saturday, August 27. These enrollment events will support eligible households, answer questions about the ACP benefit, and provide hands-on assistance with the application.
The Get Connected! Coalition invites all Counties, School Districts, County Offices of Education, Libraries, Cities, Community-Based Organizations (CBOs), Internet Service Providers (ISPs), and other interested Local Leaders to step up to do their part to reach all low-income households in California. Click on this link to share how you and your organization could contribute to a successful Get Connected! Month and Day. Included in this newsletter item are links to a flyer which can be edited, documentation for students (English only at this time), and the full document with information similar to the above.

Integrated Education and Training (IET) in California: Voices from the Field
IET is an approach to providing adult basic skills education concurrently and contextually with workforce preparation and job skills training for the purpose of educational and career advancement. Participants in IET programs (or IELCE programs, in the case of those funded by section 243(a) of WIOA for English language learners) enroll in both adult education and job training courses, team-taught and with a single set of learning objectives. In California, IET programs have increased in number over the past five years, but could they be scaled to serve greater numbers of students? This webinar draws from a series of listening sessions and interviews conducted earlier this year and will highlight lessons learned from adult education providers and community colleges who have designed and implemented IET programs, in order to inform expanded use of the approach statewide. A panel of practitioners and students will share their experiences with this promising strategy. Please join us for this discussion, and bring your questions and your own stories to share.
Date: August 24, 2022
Time: 12:00 p.m. – 1:30 p.m.
