Narrative
In 2022-2023, CCCAEC developed both its annual and three-year plan. When developing the three-year plan, CCCAEC reflected on accomplishments and challenges from the previous plan and identified the following goals: (1) Optimize learning and clarify career pathways to support student success; (2) Increase equitable access to CCCAEC member services; (3) Continue to align data/reporting process across the Consortium; (4) Enhance capacity to support seamless transitions; (5) Engage in data-informed quality improvement efforts to improve consortium outcomes and (6) Strengthen internal and external Consortium partnerships. For its annual adult education plan, CCCAEC prioritized (1) Optimize learning and clarify career pathways to support student success; (4) Enhance capacity to support seamless transitions; and (3) Subregionally strengthen internal and external Consortium partnerships to optimize referral opportunities for adult learners. CCCAEC member agencies continue to make progress towards both the annual and three-year plan and consistently review the goals in bi-monthly board meetings. The Consortium Manager has developed an annual plan tracker to capture updates on the annual plan at the sub-regional level and discuss it in board meetings to ensure planned allocations remain consistent with the annual and three-year plan. Through its established annual budget development process, facilitated by the CCCAEC Budget and Fiscal Workgroup, the CCCAEC reviewed and approved the funding needs of each member to ensure that allocations are appropriate to support member programming and implement annual and three-year strategies and activities. The budget development process also included thorough review and planning of Common Costs to ensure appropriate resources are available to support Consortium administrative and operational needs.
Changes
The CCCAEC s 2023-24 CFAD has changes in funding amounts to all members from their 2022-2023 CFAD allocation.

Please see the table below for a detailed accounting of the CCCAEC s fiscal year 2023-2024 allocations. The CCCAEC members developed and approved the 2023-2024 CAEP allocation budget through the annual budget development process as outlined in the CCCAEC s budget agreement document. The final allocation budget outlined in this CFAD was approved by board-designated voting members at the CCCAEC Steering Committee, a public meeting on April 27, 2023.
