Missouri has a Continuous Improvement Plan (CPI) for its Adult Education and Literacy Programs, outlined online.
Based on the Missouri Adult Education and Literacy (AEL) State Plan, the state AEL office is required to conduct on-site reviews of all AEL programs at least once every 5 years. This review process includes grant/contract compliance, data, program operation, and fiscal reviews.
Missouri is one of the states that uses a performance-based funding formula for its adult education programs. Beginning in 2012, 10% of funding will be based on the prior years’ performance. These documents explain the budget process.
