Adult Education is Level Funded for 2011
The Governor, in his budget address on July 1, 2010, announced that adult
education is level funded for FY11!  The Governor indicated that there was
$26.78 million in the budget for adult education.  He includes Career and
Technical Education (CTE - $9.2 million) in that figure so adult
education's share is $17.6 million--the same as last year. The total amount
meets the maintenance of effort requirement to qualify for $48 million in
federal dollars for the two programs.
