- Narrative
- ACCEL San Mateo County continues to make progress toward the achievement of the goals and strategies as set forth in its 3 Year Strategic Plan. ACCEL s consortium members persist in their efforts to anticipate, plan, and adapt to the ever-changing challenging educational environment due to the Covid-19 Pandemic. ACCEL's planned budget allocations for the program year 2022-2023 are aligned with our upcoming three-year plan. ACCEL consortium members are actively engaged in serving our students and remain committed to ensuring equitable access, growth, and successful outcomes for adult education students throughout the region. ACCEL members are continuous improvement driven, committed to excellence in program and curriculum development, as well as working to deliver of high quality education. In 2021-2022, ACCEL s steering committee work group project teams (support services and short term CTE) advanced toward the achievement of strategic goals as outlined in our 3 Year and Annual Plan. The project teams each administered survey questionnaires to students enrolled in ACCEL member adult schools, community colleges, and community-based organizations in the region. The workgroup project teams analyzed the survey data, shared their findings with ACCEL s management team and steering committee, along with their recommendations to advance the work as the consortia works to develop its next 3-year strategic plan. The workgroup project teams continue to focus on developing tools and promising practice guidelines to support and foster collaboration between ESL, ABE/ASE & CTE faculty to increase transitions between programs and post-secondary education. This activity is in alignment with CAEP s shared vision and goals. ACCEL San Mateo County consortium is on track for achieving its goal of developing new CTE programs and collaboration between its adult school and college members. New CTE programs: AWS Cloud Computing Level 2; San Mateo Adult School & College of San Mateo, Dental Assisting Intro Program, LaCosta Adult School & Canada College; Medical Billing & Coding, San Mateo Adult School, Intro to Medical Terminology, San Mateo Adult School, Fork-Lift Certification, South San Francisco Adult School; NETX IT Certification Training, Jefferson Adult School & Skyline College.

On April 21, 2022, ACCEL s steering committee in their public meeting approved the proposed 2022-23 allocations, including the allocation for ACCEL s general fund. ACCEL s general fund covers the consortium s operating expenses. ACCEL's General Fund covers all consortium expenses such as: salary and benefits for the Consortium's executive director, administrative assistant, and other operating expenses . Operating Expenses include: office supplies, website & website maintenance, Community Pro (database system), Zoom.
