Abstract	The Department of Education, Division of Community Colleges and Workforce Preparation, has prepared this report in response to the Skilled Iowa and Job Creation Fund legislation related to the state appropriation for Adult Basic Education and Adult Education Literacy (AEL) Programs (260C.50) This report was coordinated by the Department with the assistance of Iowa's 15 community colleges. As defined by Title II of the Workforce Innovation and Opportunity Act (WIOA) of 2014, adult education enables adults to: (1) become literate and obtain the knowledge and skills necessary for employment and self-sufficiency; (2) obtain the educational skills necessary to become full partners in the educational development of their children; and (3) complete a secondary school education. Adult education's history of responding to learners' needs is addressing the skill gap and economic demands of Iowa's workforce. Whether a learner's goals are related to personal improvement, family literacy, further training, or employment, undereducated adults in Iowa need a system that provides clear pathways and support. This report compares AEL financial allocations, expenditures, and performance within the state and by the providers for FY17 and FY18. [For the 2017 report, see ED584133.] (ERIC).
