Numbers Take-away
• Folks are working, which is good, but may be missing out on the current window of opportunity to skill up and move up.
• ABE programs can support folks in skilling up by expanding both:– partnerships with post-secondary education and
training providers, i.e. career pathway models, and – by supporting for incumbent workers, i.e.
workplace programming.

WIOA and ABE
• Partner in providing:• Local/regional workforce development systems that include an
array of career pathways that:• are responsive to both worker and employer needs;• are labor market information (LMI) driven;• align as many resources as possible, in a
collaborative/coordinated/non-duplicative way, in support of folks traversing the career pathways.
• Provide instruction and education services– below the postsecondary level – that increase individual’s attainment of the knowledge and skills
articulated in state content standards.
Requirements• WIOA requires that:– State ABE systems implement content standards
that align to state K-12 academic standards (WIOA, Title I A Section 102(2)D(ii)).
– U.S. Department of Education revise the NRS level descriptors to align to the CCRS.
– the U.S. Department of Education have pre- and post-tests aligned to the CCRS in Language Arts and Math (scheduled for PY 2017-18
Purpose• Content standards:– Describe what students should know and be
able to do upon successful completion of an instructional program.
– Provide the foundation for designing curricula, instruction, and assessment.
• Content do not:– Dictate the types of lesson plans, activities,
or teaching methods to be used in the classroom.
Benefits :• Provide teachers and administrators with:
– a shared vision for adult education– a common language for discussing outcomes, and – guidelines for structuring curriculum, instruction, and assessment. Content
standards.• Provide students:
– guideposts to follow as they make progress, giving them more responsibility for their learning and helping them design their own goals, and
– assure that high-mobility students and students who “stop out” have access to a logical, predictable set of skills all teachers/programs are working toward
• Provide stakeholders (i.e., postsecondary institutions, vocational programs, employers) – a description what adult education students know and are able to do which helps
inform collaboration and coordination of services and employment decisions.

Minnesota ABE Miracle
• 5 Components1. Strong culture of collaboration2. Well funded system
• Only a handful of states have similar funding levels
3. Integration of literacy volunteers• In many states the federally/state funded system and
volunteers systems do not collaborate
4. Consortium and Supplemental Services Models create economies of scale• Making possible better services to our students and the
programs that serve them
education.state.mn.us 37
Most Important Component
5. All of us– Minnesota ABE’s highly skilled, dedicated and
caring workforce and volunteers: teachers, support professionals, resource professionals and administrators.
