Priority Action Plan
Following the submission of the Expanding Career Pathways Opportunities in Adult Education: Strategic Directions for Illinois 2018-2023 in January 2018 by the Statewide Task Force on the Future Direction of Adult Education and Literacy within the Illinois Community College Board (ICCB), ICCB launched a follow-up planning process assembling the Adult Education and Literacy Five-Year Strategic Plan Action Subcommittee. The 40+ members of the Strategic Action Plan Subcommittee represented a broad representation of critical stakeholders. The charge to the subcommittee was to help operationalize the Adult Education Strategic Plan by developing a complementary Priority Action Plan. This draft action plan includes a detailed set of priority action steps connected and organized across the four overall strategic goals and objectives.
