Washington's I-BEST Washington State Board for Community and Technical Colleges Expanding the Accelerated I-BEST Pathway

Before I-BEST ABE Students Didn’t Continue Only 13% of ESL and less than 33% of ABE students continued on to college-level work. Only 4 to 6% of students reached the Tipping Point or earned a certificate or degree within five years of completing ABE.

Do Better and Go Further, Faster Columbia University’s Community College Research Center found that I-BEST students in comparison with other basic skills students in workforce programs were: –3 times more likely to earn college credit –9 times more likely to earn an award I-BEST Students

To Certificate and Degree Attainment and Increased student achievement beyond basic skills. –I-BEST students earned 83% of certificates and degrees earned by ABE students in –And 81% of the achievement points for those reaching the Tipping Point I-BEST Continues to Be the Driving Force

Increase Accelerated Pathways for All Acceleration & contextualization are needed throughout the curriculum! Every two years, 60,000 to 95,000 upper level Adult Basic Education and lower level Developmental Education students are enrolled in Washington’s Community and Technical Colleges Increasing enrollment in comprehensive, accelerated pathways is critical to ensuring more students will more quickly attain higher level certificates and degrees. Focusing on the comprehensive pathway is critical!

I-BEST Program Enrollment History Washington currently has over 166 approved I-BEST programs I-BEST FTES grew substantially from In , enrollments were basically flat due to system budget cuts Last year enrollments (all funds) declined -6% FTEs FTEs27% FTEs30% FTEs52% FTEs 1% (3,342 Students) FTEs -6% (3,275 Students)

Promise More Access to I-BEST I-BEST expansion programs increase pathway options and acceleration for all levels of precollege students. –On-ramp to I-BEST pilot projects –Professional Technical I-BEST Corrections I-BEST –I-BEST for Developmental Education pilot project –Academic I-BEST Expansion Initiatives

A COMMUNITY AND TECHNICAL COLLEGE PROFESSIONAL/TECHNICAL AND ACADEMIC PROGRAMS Professional/technical land academic programs at all 34 colleges provide adults with skills, knowledge and certificates/degrees that lead to employment and additional education that allow students to become competitive in the global economy and workforce. ACADEMIC I-BEST PROGRAMS Academic I-BEST employs the same strategies as professional technical I-BEST and applies them to a to a 2-year degree pathway ensuring accelerated student progress through higher levels of ABE and precollege education and transition into 2-year degree programs. DEVELOPMENTAL EDUCATION I-BEST PILOTS These pilots move students further and faster through precollege hurdles in math and English and successfully into professional/technical and academic degree programs. PROFESSIONAL/TECHNICAL I-BEST PROGRAMS Professional/Technical I-BEST programs all result in recognized certificates that lead to employment and/or progression along a defined educational and career pathway. I-BEST programs are also offered at three correctional facilities. ON RAMP to I-BEST PILOTS (SkillUp, SBCTC, I-DEA, I-BEST at Work, ORIA) On Ramp pilot programs provide ABE and ESL students who demonstrate skills at federal levels 1-3 to acquire skills needed to participate in Professional/Technical or Academic I-BEST projects in 1-3 quarters. The Comprehensive I-BEST PATHWAY

On-ramp to I-BEST On-ramp to I-BEST targets adults who test too low to enter and succeed in I-BEST- and in 3-quarters prepares them to move into I-BEST and college-level programs. 88% of students tested made significant gains 185 Student achievement points earned in the first two quarters by the 104 students enrolled On-ramp pilots have been expanded to 13 additional programs and because of the I-DEA initiative will expand to all 34 colleges over the next 3 years.

Professional/Technical I-BEST programs result in recognized certificates leading to employment and progression along a defined educational and career pathway. –Professional/Technical I-BEST results were relatively stable and represent a mature program model – I-BEST programs are also offered in correctional facilities. Professional Technical I-BEST

I-BEST for Developmental Education Expands professional technical I-BEST programs to the next level of training along that same career pathway. This allows I-BEST completers to successfully complete pre-college levels and barrier classes that lead to a two year degree. Twelve pilot projects implemented and tested strategies that move students further and faster accelerating time to the highest credential in the pathway.

Early Results Prove Promising DEV ED I-BEST Students Accumulated an average of 42 college credits Had a retention rate of 75% 80% completed 1 or more levels of Dev. Ed math 84% completed 1 or more levels of Dev. English Had an average GPA of students completed at least 1 college of level math course 111 students completed at least 1 college of level English course

Academic I-BEST employs the same strategies as traditional I-BEST and applies them to a transfer pathway that leads to higher wage jobs. Like traditional I-BEST, Academic I-BEST students in the first cohorts have been highly successful in attaining student achievement points: –76% of the students made basic skills gains –79% made college readiness gains –73% earned their first 15 college credits successfully –37% earned their first 30 college credits –And 11% reached the tipping point and earned a college certificate or degree all in 1-3 quarters.
