US DOE Publication: College and Career Readiness (CCR) Standards for Adult Education
The US Department of Education announces a new MPR report:
College and Career Readiness (CCR) Standards for Adult Education.
Based in the Common Core State Standards, this resource is designed to provide:
“… a set of manageable yet significant CCR standards that reflect broad agreement among subject matter experts in adult education about what is desirable for adult students to know to be prepared for the rigors of postsecondary education and training.”
