Hanover Report Analyzes California Adult Education Plans
Summary Analysis: 2019-2022 Three-Year Plans
Hanover Research recently conducted for the California Community Colleges Chancellor's Office an analysis of the three-year plans submitted by adult education consortia.

The report includes eight key findings, among them "w ith regards to external, customer-facing areas for future development, approximately 40 percent of consortia intend to improve student transition services and pathways, while around 31 percent of consortia intend to improve student support services. Despite the numerous areas targeted for future development, only 9.4 percent of consortia report a need to increase staff."

Washington State-Defined Process for Ability to Benefit
screenshot of page one of the document
Check out this document that outlines the Washington Integrated Basic Education and Skills Training model, or I-BEST. The program places adult education students directly into college credit-bearing career pathways that lead to high demand, living-wage jobs.

From the document: "I-BEST challenges the traditional notion that students must move through a set sequence of basic education courses before they can start working on certificates and degrees. The combined teaching method at the heart of I-BEST allows students to work on college-level studies much more quickly than in traditional models, and the required navigational services connects students to resources and guides them to completion."

Achieving Postsecondary Transitions Through Dual Enrollment for Adult Learners
As community colleges respond to AB 705 and Guided Pathways by removing barriers to entry and clarifying degree paths, CLASP’s  Resources on Ability to Benefit   toolkit provides resources to create career pathway programs that enable students to earn Pell Grants while completing HSE/HSD programs.
 
California  Senate Bill 554  aims to create seamless credit-bearing dual-enrollment programs at adult school campuses and in adult education programs. For more information, contact Brianna Bruns at  bbruns@californiaedge.org .
