Postsec. | Administrative costs are limited to 8% for community-based or non-profit organizations and 5% for school districts of the total state funds received from the district or consortium. This cannot exceed the actual unreimbursed cost of administering ABE services. To be eligible to deliver ABE services, a non-profit or community-based organization must demonstrate that it: 1) is legally established; 2) can meet the ABE reporting requirements; 3) provides training for instructional staff; and 4) develops a learning plan for each participating adult learner with measurable goals or have prior experience.
Performance Tracking System (Section 15). Requires all ABE programs to develop and implement a performance tracking system by July 1, 2000 to collect data on the following core indicators: 1) improvements in literacy skill levels; 2) participation in post-secondary education, training, subsidized employment or career advancement; and 3) receipt of a secondary school diploma or equivalent.
Bill also establishes a base aid for ABE programs equal to $1.80 times the population of the district or a minimum of $4,000. After the basic population aid is paid in full, the difference between the state total and the basic population aid is allocated among districts/programs as follows:
1) eighty-four percent is distributed based on a program's relative share of contact hours in the prior year; 2) eight percent is distributed based on a district's relative share of the students with limited English proficiency enrolled in the district in the prior year; and 3) eight percent is distributed based on a district's relative share of adults in the district without a high school diploma according to the last federal census.
For FY 2002 and later, also establishes two limits to the state ABE aid distributed to ABE programs. Total aid for a program cannot exceed four times the rate per prior year contact hour. A program's aid distributed on the basis of contact hours cannot grow by more than 17 percent per year or $20,000, whichever is more.
Legislation additionally directs the Board of Teaching to develop a competency-based license for adult learners as an alternative to the current licensing requirements. The Board must develop recommendations for the legislature, in consultation with a task force, and report to the legislature by January 15, 2002.
