Info

Career Development is a key component of any comprehensive guidance and counseling program, helping students explore career options, develop career selfmanagement skills, and identify educational paths to preferred careers. The CDE promotes career development in secondary education through policy development and assistance in field trials of career exploration and life skills programs. The CDE works with the California Career Resource Network to develop and disseminate career development resources and training for school counselors, teachers, administrators, and career guidance paraprofessionals in the state’s educational agencies. Partnership Academies is a three-year program for students in grades ten through twelve. Structured as a school-within-a-school, academies create a close family-like atmosphere, integrate academic and CTE, and establish viable business partnerships that provide support for the program. Emphasis is placed on student achievement and positive postsecondary outcomes. Academies have been carefully evaluated and have been shown to have positive impacts on school performance. There are 290 funded programs throughout California. For more information regarding CTE, contact the Secondary, Postsecondary, and Adult Leadership Division, at (916) 445-2652. Additional information is also available on the CTE Web site at http://www.cde.ca.gov/ci/ct. 94
Adult Education Adult education provides educational opportunities and services to equip adults with the knowledge and skills necessary to participate effectively as citizens, workers, parents, and family and community members. Instructional programs ensure that adults have the education and skills required for a competitive economy and a better quality of life. Adult students are served by school districts, community colleges, community or faith-based organizations, volunteer literacy organizations, public or private nonprofit agencies, public libraries, correctional facilities, and state agencies. The California Department of Education serves over one million adult learners annually by allocating state and federal funds through its adult education provider network. For more information, contact the Adult Education Office at (916) 322-2175. Additional information is also available on the Adult Education Web site at http://www.cde.ca.gov/sp/ae. Populations Adult education serves an increasingly diverse student population, including the following specialized groups: Adult Immigrants—Adults who need language instruction and learning experiences that will permit them to communicate with English speakers; learn the cultures and customs of the United States; and prepare them for employment, citizenship, parenthood, and self-sufficiency. Adults with Disabilities—Individuals with cognitive, physical, sensory, or medical disabilities or mental disorders. Adult education provides modified equipment, materials, and instructional strategies to teach literacy, workplace, and family literacy skills. Disadvantaged Adults—Low-income and hard-to-serve adults who demonstrate basic skills deficiency below the eighth-grade level. Adult education provides basic skills training, preparation for the General Educational Development (GED) test, preparation toward earning a high school diploma, and job skills training opportunities. Homeless Adults—Persons living in extreme poverty who often cannot afford to travel to adult education programs. Adult literacy services provide life skills instruction, linkages to community resources, self-esteem support, and preparation for employment. Incarcerated Adults—Individuals who are convicted of any criminal offense. Incarcerated adults represent a significant portion of the hard-to-serve or dropout segment of the educational system. The correctional education programs provide educational and job training services in technology, English as a second language, high school credit, and basic education programs to prepare inmates to become responsible citizens and to successfully integrate into society. 95
