Featured Facts for Adult Learning Campaign “Design Lab”

 
This report was prepared from a variety of national and regional data for participants in the Adult Learning Campaign “Design Lab” meeting. The Featured Facts complement data in the SREB Fact Book for Higher Education and have been built around the three priority populations or segments of adult learners targeted in this Lumina Foundation project. These categories are:

• Adults ages 18 to 24, with at least a ninth-grade education but with no high school diploma, who are capable and ready to earn a GED credential and can then move to attaining additional training (work force development) or some postsecondary education.

• Adults ages 25 to 44, with at least a ninth-grade education up to some college, who may need the GED credential and/or courses to develop skills needed to pursue postsecondary certificates, diplomas or degree programs.

• Adults of any age, with an associate's degree or higher, seeking to advance their postsecondary education via supplemental courses (both credit and noncredit), certificates or degree programs at any level.
