文凭课程

HIDOE’s Community Schools for 成人s are fully accredited by the Western Association of Schools and Colleges (WASC). The goal of the GED and HiSET programs is to ensure that graduates who earn a High School Equivalency Credential and/or Hawai‘i 成人 Community School Diploma are career ready and prepared for post-secondary education. Both are aligned to national Common Core State Standards and College and Career Readiness Standards.

General 教育al Development 

The GED test provides a valid means of measuring the educational achievement of adults who have not graduated high school, and of comparing their academic competence with that of high school graduates. The GED test battery consists of five tests: writing skills, social studies, science, interpreting literature and the arts, and mathematics. Individuals who successfully complete the test battery will receive an official GED transcript and may qualify for the Hawai‘i 成人 Community School Diploma. The diploma may provide graduates the opportunity to enter the military service, gain college admission, increase income, increase job qualifications or assist in obtaining work advancement.​

高中同等学历考试 

The purpose of the HiSET is to certify a candidate’s attainment of academic knowledge and skills equivalent to those of a high school graduate. HiSET scores will identify those candidates who have performed at a level consistent with high school equivalency. Individuals who successfully complete the test battery will receive an official HiSET transcript and may qualify for the Hawai‘i 成人 Community School Diploma. The diploma may provide graduates the opportunity to enter the military service, gain college admission, increase income, increase job qualifications or assist in obtaining work advancement.

劳动力发展证书（WDC）计划

在劳动力发展委员会、州劳工和工业关系部、职业康复司、雇主和社区学院的合作下，劳动力发展证书计划得以启动。

The Workforce Development Certificate (WDC) Program was designed to meet the needs of those students entering the workforce with job entry that do not require a high school certificate. The WDC Program will prepare students with the necessary basic education and access to job training programs. To be eligible, a student must be 18 years and older, or 16- to 17-year-old students who are released from school through the 4140 process. All enrolled students who complete the requirements of the program will earn a Workforce Development Certificate from their respective community school.

成人 and Community 教育 Advisory Council (ACEAC)

The Hawai‘i State Legislature established the Hawai‘i 成人教育 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.

夏威夷修订法规第 1 部分第 302A 章规定：

第 302A-432 条 成人 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 教育 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.

这 成人 and Community 教育 Advisory Council was established by Section 302A of the Hawai‘i Revised Statutes.

[第302A-434条] 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 成人教育

该部门利用 College and Career Readiness Standards for 成人教育, which are a manageable set of the Common Core State Standards (CCSS) most indispensable for college and career readiness and essential to adult students. In accordance with section 102 of WIOA, the eligible agency aligns content standards for adult education with state-adopted challenging academic content standards, as adopted under section 1111(b)(1) of the Elementary and Secondary 教育 Act of 1965 (20 美国法典第 6311(b)(1) 条).

In 2010, the Hawaii Board of 教育 adopted the CCSS for English Language Arts and Mathematics for the Hawaii public school system. The English Language Proficiency (ELP) Standards for 成人教育 (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.
