Book Description
Economic and demographic changes are dramatically increasing the need for adult education, basic literacy, and English-as-a-Second Language (ESL) programs. Millions of Illinois residents lack the level of literacy skills needed to obtain good jobs, perform well on the job, and function well in an increasingly complex society. Addressing the scope and diversity of need for adult education and literacy skills takes community colleges, public schools, community based organizations, and others working together to provide the education and services needed by a wide variety of adult learners. The Illinois Community College Board (ICCB) is committed to strengthening these partnerships and working to expand Adult Education and Family Literacy services that will enable individuals to increase basic skills and become more productive citizens. This report summarizes programs and activities during the fiscal year July 1, 2005 through June 30, 2006. It notes that there is a critical need for adult education in Illinois, observing that nearly 1.8 million of Illinois' 9.8 million adults have less than 12 grades of formal education. Statistics on workforce preparation and English as a Second Language (ESL) activities are presented; e.g., ESL learners constitute the majority of Adult Education instruction. Successes in adult education are listed; e.g., (1) Illinois Adult Education and Family Literacy exceeded its Workforce Investment Act performance targets at 119 percent of the goal in fiscal year 2006; and (2) More than 3,500 students in Illinois are enrolled in GED Illinois Online, a national recognized world-class web-based GED curriculum developed to expand the availability of Adult Education programming in Illinois. Provider diversity, funds by source of adult education and family literacy, program approval criteria, and federal and state funding in FY 2006 are itemized. Future initiatives are discussed.
