The Chancellor of the California Community Colleges and the Superintendent of Public Instruction are responsible for overseeing the Adult Education Program. State law mandates that they designate adult education regions across the state and establish one adult education consortium per region. They must annually report by February 1 to several state entities on how program funds are used, outcomes for adults, and provide any recommendations on improving education and services for adult education, immigrant integration, and workforce development. This process involves receiving input from the Statewide Director of Immigrant Integration and adult education providers.
SB 670 defines “immigrant integration” for purposes of the Adult Education Program and to assist with establishing common measures to assist the needs of immigrant and refugee adults.
(SB 670 amends Section 84901 of the Education Code.)
