The Advancing CA Adult Education Showcase is one of the tools provided for CAEP to support stakeholders in developing and sharing best practices. This showcase is a collection of successful and proven practices that have been implemented across the state by CAEP consortia. Use these examples to get ideas for what practices may work to help your region achieve its goals or to learn more about how consortia have successfully implemented practices your region is beginning to put into action.
