About the In-service
To support the successful transition from a regular day school to the diverse environment of adult, alternative and continuing education, the in-service will:
- Provide an overview of how funding, staffing and resource allocation works to support the delivery of cost-effective adult, alternative and continuing education programs;
- Introduce administrators to key local/regional service delivery networks that support adult learners in achieving their education and career/life goals (e.g., literacy networks, workforce planning boards, employment networks);
- Provide networking opportunities with practicing administrators so that administrators can ask questions related specifically to the adult, alternative and continuing education programs they are responsible
Topics to be covered include:
- Complex needs of adult learners and ways boards have addressed the needs of adult learners in achieving their education and career/life goals;
- Adult, alternative and continuing education program operational structures and processes (e.g., PLAR for mature students, continuing education funding registers, and reporting requirements).
