Abstract	Since 2016, the State Higher Education Executive Officers Association (SHEEO), with generous support from Lumina Foundation, has been working with states to explore establishing "promise-type" aid programs for adult students (adult promise programs). SHEEO is currently working with 15 states to implement adult promise programs through 2020: Arizona, California, Hawaii, Idaho, Indiana, Kentucky, Maine, Minnesota, North Carolina, Ohio, Oklahoma, Oregon, Rhode Island, Texas, and Washington. Adult promise programs are programs that: (1) Promote a simple, transparent message that postsecondary education is affordable for adult learners; (2) Make a financial commitment to adult students through leveraging aid from all available sources; and (3) Establish and support programs and services that are tailored to the unique needs of adult students and will help them succeed in postsecondary education. This design template is intended for states, regions, localities, and institutions that are interested in developing promise programs for adult learners. It provides a checklist for those designing adult promise programs and includes examples and specific items to consider as those programs are being designed. The information and concepts presented here should also be useful for those looking to improve adult learner success in postsecondary education outside of the promise program framework. This design template is intended to be used alongside the resources available on SHEEO's Adult Promise website. [For "Adult Promise Program: A Pilot Design Template for States," see ED603885. For the full white paper, "The Power of a Promise: Implications and Importance of Adult Promise Programs. SHEEO Adult Promise Project," see ED603919.] (ERIC).
