Fiscal Management
Alignment & Carryover
The Mid Alameda County Consortium (MACC) determines allocations in March-April of each year in accordance with the prior Three-Year Plan approved by the MACC Official Representatives. A budget allocation inquiry survey is distributed to the Consortium voting members along with available information about an anticipated COLA when appropriate. The survey is intended to capture member requests and suggested special projects for the coming year. The MACC Official Representatives then vote to proceed with allocation percentages.
The MACC Official Representatives regularly review CAEP guidance regarding member effectiveness, budget planning and carry forward amounts. The 2025-26 member allocations will support development of new programs and services for adult learners within the region, while also maintaining current staffing levels, facilities costs, and existing programs and services. As part of the 25-28 Three-Year Planning process, members also shared their leveraged non-CAEP funding for Adult Education programs and services.
The MACC Official Representatives team reviews CAEP member effectiveness guidelines regularly, including budget planning, carry-over requirements and planned member approaches for incorporating remaining carry-over funds from prior years into planned strategies. The Consortium uses a 20% threshold for carry over and members report expenditures quarterly to monitor member carry over amounts. All MACC members have agreed to use carry-over funds to meet agency responsibilities for the provision of consortium supported programs and services pertaining to the MACC Three-Year Plan.
Usage
Specific plans include:
Chabot College:
Planned allocations for 2025- 2026 were used to support Education Program Managers' coordination of and participation in all MACC related committees and activities.
No planned carry over
Castro Valley Adult & Career Education:
In 2024-2025, CVUSD implemented an approximately 3.5% COLA. They built a CAEP budget for 2025-2026 that is similar to 2024-2025 and they expect to offer similar programs and activities.
Carryover funds may be needed to address budgetary gaps due to the CAEP COLA of 2.3% being less than their district COLA. They also intend to tackle technology upgrades throughout the campus for wifi and update computers that cannot be updated to Windows 11. If funding permits, they will further expand ESL offerings.
Dublin Adult Education:
Funds will support ESL, Citizenship, and transition programming. They will also continue investment in teacher PD, curriculum development, and digital access. The 2025-26 budget accounts for anticipated hourly rate increases and benefits adjustments.
Any carry over will support the purchase of updated technology, classroom materials, and supplies to support growing enrollment.
Hayward Adult School:
In 2024-25, HAS used allocated funds to expand programing opportunities for our community. In 2025-26 they will continue with this approach to ensure HAS meets the needs of the community.
Any carryover funds will be leveraged to provide additional professional development opportunities for teachers.
Las Positas College:
LPC uses CAEP allocations to explore, expand, and create academic and career pathways including building on and off ramps, instruction for AE populations, and developing AE specific programming. In the coming year, LPC will prioritize Adult Learners by exploring innovative and targeted programming that ensures seamless transitions, enhance pathways, and launch Dual Enrollment for adult GED/HSD students.
