-- We do not have such in Vermont, but are having discussions around the 'certification' issue. I will be happy to share as we move forward from discussion. ---- "Howard L.

I am looking for information on adult basic skills certifications, particularly those issued by a state-level agency or a consortium. A certification that is recognized as valid and useful by programs, colleges, providers, businesses across your state. Does your state have a process for recognizing skill attainment before a secondary credential is awarded? Is it considering one? If so, what standards are included? What levels of performance are recognized? What assessements are being used? If your state doesn't have such certifications, do you think it would be valuable to have them? If so, I have the same questions as above. RI is considering if and what certifications would benefit our learners as they move from our adult ed programs into their next-steps--work, college, training, citizenship, and so on. We'd appreciate your guidance, ( and the opportunity to beg, borrow, steal or buy the best from the best....) Thanks for the assist! Howard D.
