Check out the following resources that outline key initiatives: 

Office of Career, Technical, and Adult Education (OCTAE) administers, coordinates programs that are related to adult education and literacy, career and technical education, and community colleges.

For the latest news and information about career and technical education and adult education, see the AEFLA website and the OCTAE Blog.

In addition, the Literacy Information and Communication System, or LINCS, community of adult literacy practitioners is active, with numerous study circles, webinars, listserve discussions, and online networking opportunities. This community is also making available many resources, which are vetted by adult literacy experts, for use in adult literacy instruction, administration, and research.

Further, another organization, World Education has many projects, which include adult literacy and adult education professional development, postsecondary transition, and dissemination of resources for adult education.

A research initiative of the Open Door Collective is the Evidence-Based Adult Education System (E-BAES) Taskforce. E-BAES has more than 30 researchers, practitioners, and government officials as members. Two E-BAES papers on adult educators' response to the COVID pandemic were published in 2020 and 2022. 

In 2023-24 World Education led a research initiative on behalf of ALL IN. E-BAES received an ALL IN research grant to plan for a national return-on-investment study on the value of adult foundational education - research findings are in a May 2024 ALL IN blog.

Finally, the Council for Advancement of Adult Literacy www.caalusa.org houses a repository of research resources to inform policy, such as in its recent efforts in regard to enactment of the Workforce Innovation and Opportunity Act (WIOA), which President Obama signed into law on July 22, 2014.
