CAEP Summit 2023 Call for Proposals Now Open
| |
|
The CAEP Summit 2023 Call for Proposals is still open! Proposals have started to come in, so you don't want to miss out on this opportunity. The CAEP TAP welcomes adult education practitioners to submit a proposal to present a session at the upcoming CAEP Summit 2023, to be held in-person for the first time since 2019, at the Hilton Universal City, October 24-26, 2023.
The CAEP Summit 2023 is an opportunity for adult education practitioners to share and discuss innovative and effective promising practices, strategies, and other resources anchored in the CAEP State Priorities: Equity, Leadership, Learner Transition, Marketing, Program Development, Program Evaluation, and Technology and Distance Learning. Sessions at the CAEP Summit 2023 can either be 60 or 90 minutes to fit your needs. Additionally, since the Summit is two and half days, the chances of competing sessions taking place at the same time is reduced.
Access the complete call for proposal details, including the registration notes, by clicking on the following link.
Proposal submission deadline: June 30, 2023. Applicants will be notified by: August 4, 2023.

California Community Colleges Technical Assistance Project Needs Assessment Survey
| |
|
The Chancellor’s Office, in partnership with the California Department of Education, has selected North Orange Continuing Education (NOCE) to serve as the California Community Colleges Adult Education Technical Assistance Provider (CC TAP). The CC TAP will seek to enhance the current technical assistance provided under the California Adult Education Program (CAEP) by expanding the support for community colleges with noncredit adult education programs. Together, with the current CAEP TAP, the CC TAP will support and promote the CAEP Office efforts to increase student outcomes for CAEP noncredit students, career mobility for adult learners, and provide equitable training and technical assistance services for the CAEP community.
This survey serves as part of a discovery process in NOCE’s inception year, to prioritize needs in the field, identify gaps in service, and enhance the current technical assistance capacity. Please take a moment to share with us your invaluable feedback to support noncredit community colleges and the CAEP consortia.
The deadline to complete the survey is Friday, April 21, 2023.
The CC TAP greatly appreciates your participation in this brief survey!

Advancing CA Adult Education Model Program Nomination Now Open
| |
|
In 2022, the CAEP Office and CAEP TAP recognized the Inland Adult Education Consortium for meeting the regional need of comprehensive and rigorous professional development. In 2016, the Inland Adult Education Consortium started hosting the regional professional development day and have continued each year. The annual professional development day is divided into two categories: trainings from curriculum/assessment providers, presentations from community partner organizations such as the workforce development board and immigration services, presentations from instructional practitioners on best-practices, and themes that align to the CAEP State Priorities. The professional development helped to level-set the knowledge, skills, and expectations of classified, certificated teachers, and administrators. This annual event draws participants from across Southern California with attendance often exceeding 150 participants. Learn more about this model program, including the unique features of the program and their outcomes, by clicking the link here.
The Advancing CA Adult Education Model Program nomination program is open for 2023! The CAEP Office welcomes nominations of California Adult Education Programs, demonstrating innovative, emerging, or model practices for the Advancing CA Adult Education Award and recognition at California’s CAEP Summit. 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.
Benefits to participating in the project:
- Showcase a new, emerging, and/or promising program.
- Share practices with other adult education programs and practitioners.
- A video capturing the highlights of the top two scoring programs is created.
- All qualifying program nominations are published on the CAEP website.
- All qualifying program nominations are recognized at the annual CAEP Summit.
- Stories and videos may be highlighted at conferences throughout California and distributed to local, regional, and state officials.
How to participate in the project:
Nominations must highlight a California Adult Education Program (CAEP) approved program area and may be submitted by any CAEP funded agency during the open nomination period. This year’s nomination period is March 1, 2023 - June 30, 2023. All nominations will be reviewed for completeness and for how closely they address the rubric criteria stated on the nomination form. Incomplete nominations and nominations that do not address the rubric criteria will not be considered.
To get started, go to the Request Support page on the CAEP website (caladulted.org) and register as a new user or login to the website. Once logged in, click on the box that says Submit Nomination.
