Purpose


To amend the rule to add one new assessment Tests of Adult Basic Education (TABE) Forms 11 and 12 to the list of approved assessments appropriate for use in adult education. These assessments identify initial adult educational functioning level and measure adult learning gains. Assessments set to expire and that are no longer operational by the publisher are being repealed. Additionally, language in (5)(c) and (d) is removed as it explicitly addresses operational details on student placement. These operational details are addressed in the annual technical assistance paper. The effect is to ensure that appropriate, updated, and approved assessments are included on the Adult Education Assessment List.
