17. CTE Committee Priorities – identified Spring 2014 Rebuild our capacity to help CTE students get jobs. While this issue came up after each attendee had already listed their top 3 priorities, everyone agreed afterwards that this is a top priority. If job placement is done effectively, it will solve a number of other issues related to outreach, enrollment and resources. This is, of course, closely linked with the Data priority in that we need to build systems for collecting and tracking the placement and employment outcome data (tied to the Student Outcome Surveys). Improve budget transparency and management. Faculty would like greater access to their budgets and better information about cut-offs, deadlines, and how they can use their funds. Improve human resource processes for CTE. Faculty and Deans would like to focus on improving contracting and hiring for CTE grant-funded and related programs and activities. Improve procurement/purchasing processes for CTE. These processes are confusing and cumbersome and Deans and Faculty are spending too much time inefficiently to purchase equipment and other related materials for CTE. How can we improve these processes? Data. Committee would like to work with Institutional Research to understand how data tracking and requests are currently being handled, discuss what improvements have been or can be made – especially with respect to corresponding data collection and reporting and the necessary reporting colleges need to do to report SLO’s for grants and other funding streams. Access to information. The Committee would like to see greater access to information about grants, grant deadlines, grant reporting requirements. KE will follow up in putting this information on the District’s CTE website as a password protected function.

22. AB 86: ADULT EDUCATION Presentation to the DEC April 17, 2015 by: Karen Engel, Director of Economic & Workforce Development Cleavon Smith, BCC English faculty, Co-Chair of the AB 86 Basic Skills Area Group for Adult Education

23. Why? 2008-9 K-12 Districts given permission to “flex” Adult Education funding OUSD “flexes” 90% of their funds to serving kids 23,000 adults served/year reduced to 2,300/year by 2014

24. Why? 2012 LAO Report2012 LAO Report found: Responsibility for Adult Education has been unclear for decades Overly broad mission Lack of clear delineations between pre-collegiate and collegiate work Inconsistent state policies Lack of coordination among providers (duplication of services) Limited student data resulting in insufficient accountability

25. Response 2013 Governor Brown: Eliminate Adult Schools and give it all to the colleges Create regional consortia and fund regional plans 2014 Peralta forms a Consortium with: Albany USD Berkeley USD Emery USD Alameda USD Oakland USD Piedmont USD Year of planning resulting in a regional plan completed and submitted to the state on March 2, 2015

26. 2015 Legislative Report findings Insufficient availability of adult education programs; Need for innovation in adult education programs; Inadequate academic, social, and financial support for students Inconsistency across the K-12 and community college districts regarding assessments for placement; Lack of a common accountability approach for monitoring student progress; Limited regional coordination.

27. State Response $500M in Governor’s proposed budget “Maintenance of Effort” for K-12 Adult Schools Seed funds for the regional consortia (Peralta region expecting $1M-$1.5M to begin implementing our plan) AB 173 requires CDE and CCCCO to align: AB 173 Registration and course fees Assessments Teacher minimum qualifications Creating common student identifiers so a comprehensive accountability system can be implemented

28. Peralta Regional Plan Goals: Expand course offerings to meet unmet needs, particularly in Oakland Ensure comprehensive, coordinated assessments and placement services Build industry pathways, “entrepreneurship” pathways, and other aligned course series with multiple onramps Contextualize instruction and infusing coursework with strong civic engagement components Provide the transition services needed to help students progress along their paths and across segments, together with other services to support their success.

29. What does this mean for the Peralta Colleges? Enrollment Quality and quantity of incoming students improved SSSP Assessment, orientation, ed. planning in collaboration with Adult Schools: greater numbers, better student outcomes Basic Skills Focus on our strengths in terms of pre-collegiate/collegiate offerings Career Pathways Build on CPT and CAA work to build CTE pathways Address equipment and facility concerns (potentially) English-Language Learners Address the critical absence of low-level ESL offerings
