Senate Bill 1: The Adult Education Act of 2000 “Adult illiteracy is a fundamental barrier to every major challenge facing Kentucky, including early childhood education, education reform, economic development, and improving the health and well-being of Kentucky’s families and communities”
The Five Questions that Guide Reform • Are more Kentuckians ready for postsecondary education? • Is Kentucky postsecondary education affordable for its citizens? • Do more Kentuckians have certificates and degrees? • Are college graduates prepared for life and work in Kentucky? • Are Kentucky’s people, communities, and economy benefiting?
Focus on Adult Learning • Access • Accountability • Alignment • Affordability
