Planning Needs
•Funding for research and personnel who will coordinate/facilitate the research needed to
evaluate the needs of adult education, including an assessment of possible gaps
•Funding to assist faculty and staff in development of integrated programs that would
provide seamless transitions from adult education into secondary education and the
workforce.
•Funding for a coordinator who will work with both campuses to create integrated programs
and will evaluate and expand CTE pathways with the goals of creating seamless transitions
through articulated classes and accelerating students into CTE classes at the postsecondary
level.
• Funding for professional development for faculty and staff in order to coordinate the
facilitation between BC and all partners within the Consortia.
