A Clear Pathway to Success • The need to have a clear pathway to success is the most important item when it comes to career success. • A pathway beyond the GED and Adult Basic Education that will lead to many postsecondary options for students which may include industry certifications, college options or apprenticeship options for students
It’s About Jobs and a Career • When we talk about jobs in this state we must not forget about our adult learners who may either be re-entering the workforce or are currently in the workforce preparing themselves to move forward in their job/career • College and Career Ready in Adult Education
Moving Forward • As we begin committee meetings now and the new legislative session in the spring ….. Adult Education is at the top of the conversations! • Setting the course for the future.
Some final thoughts….. “When it comes to the future, there are three kinds of people: those who let it happen, those who make it happen, and those who wonder what happened’ John Richardson “For tomorrow belongs to the people who prepare for it today” African Proverb
