1. The population of ABE/ESOL learners overlaps significantly with the population of workers using the WfD system.

  • learners often work at lowest skill jobs and are seeking to progress to better paying or different jobs
  • learners are unemployed and seeking employment

2. ABE/ESOL programs collaborate with WfD partners:

  • local One Stop Career Centers (OSCC)
  • Workforce Investment Boards
  • community colleges
  • Vocational Rehabilitation departments/divisions in state and local governments

3. ABE/ESOL programs have representatives working within WfD programs. For example, a teacher may work part time in an OSCC to refer customers to ABE/ESOL programs; an ABE/ESOL program director may be a board member on their local WIB

4. ABE/ESOL programs incorporate employment readiness curriculum or lessons

5. OSCC's conduct ABE/ESOL assessments and may hold classes
