How Pre-Apprenticeships and Apprenticeships are Serving English Language Learners

Pre-apprenticeships and apprenticeships afford California English Language Learners (ELLs) an opportunity to receive technical education and on-the-job training. By participating, ELLs have access to increased livable wages and skills, while employers have access to a multi-skilled workforce. Jennie Mollica, a consultant specializing in workforce, apprenticeships, and immigrant education, conducted more than 60 interviews with instructors, counselors, mentors, deans, and policymakers about how pre-apprenticeships and apprenticeships are serving ELLs.

Data Diving During COVID-19

June 23, 2020

1 p.m. - 2:30 p.m. PST

Despite schools and colleges being closed due to COVID-19, the end of year deadline of August 1 for all CAEP agencies still looms. In this workshop, we will look at the CAEP Data Integrity Report (DIR), review many of the data dive principles we have presented over the past couple of years, and provide some "typical" TE data examples.... and also look at reporting areas that may need a different view given that we are in the COVID-19 era. We will present a few examples of issues that may need to be evaluated differently, and others that should still be the same despite COVID-19.
