The Hawai‘i State Legislature established the Hawai‘i Giáo dục người lớn Act of 1945, legally mandating responsibility to the HIDOE for providing increased educational opportunities for the people of Hawai‘i. In 1988, the legislature broadened the scope of adult education to include community education.

Phần 1 Chương 302A của Bộ luật sửa đổi của Hawai'i nêu rõ:

[§302A-432] Người lớn and community education authorized. To provide increased opportunity for the people of Hawai‘i, the department shall establish and regulate a program of adult and community education of less than college grade. The department shall provide public school buildings and other facilities, and use public school equipment under conditions determined by the department, when the equipment is needed, for adult and community education programs. 

State law provides that the Board of Giáo dục will be advised on its adult and community education programs by a volunteer advisory council appointed by the board. Members accepting appointment to this Council are expected to attend a minimum of four quarterly meetings per year and work with the two Community Schools or on a committee as assigned by the chair of the advisory council. These four meetings will be held during normal working hours, and members are expected to secure whatever approval necessary from their employers to be able to attend these day-long meetings.

Các Người lớn and Community Giáo dục Advisory Council was established by Section 302A of the Hawai‘i Revised Statutes.

[§302A-434] Advisory council for adult and community education. The board shall appoint an advisory council for adult and community education composed of 15 or more representatives of industry, labor, civic organizations, and education. Appointments shall be for a term of two years with reappointments optional but not to exceed a total of six years on the advisory council. 

Content Standards for Giáo dục người lớn

In 2010, the Hawaii Board of Giáo dục adopted the CCSS for English Language Arts and Mathematics for the Hawaii public school system. The English Language Proficiency (ELP) Standards for Giáo dục người lớn (AE) are intended to address the urgent need for educational equity, access and rigor for adult English language learners. The standards are essential to ensuring that adult English learners receive the focused and effective instruction they need to access states’ academic content standards.
