4 Introduction to NEDP The National External Diploma Program (NEDP) is a competency-based, applied performance assessment system in which participating adults and out-of-school youth can demonstrate their abilities in a series of simulations that parallel job and life situations. Participants are evaluated against a criterion of excellence instead of by comparison to others, take responsibility for acquiring instruction by using existing resources, and achieve mastery of all required competencies, plus an occupational, or specialized skill. 4
5 Characteristics of NEDP Performance-based Uses a competency-based approach Focused on life and work skills Self-paced and flexible Appropriate for ESL and special needs learners Encourages learner self-efficacy and active engagement Offers a locally or state-awarded high school diploma 5

7 History of NEDP 1972 Ford Foundation/Syracuse Research Corp. Study Results 1) Adult education class schedules were not compatible with adult responsibilities. 2) Content did not relate to real life experiences. 3) Multiple choice, paper/pencil tests were too limiting NEDP debuted in Syracuse, New York NEDP validated by the US Dept. of Education for national dissemination CASAS acquired NEDP with support from New York, Maryland and Connecticut Launch of NEDP online. 7

12 College and Career Competency The Individualized Competency is designed to optimize credential attainment and document the progress and success of the NEDP participant in making a transition to college and/or careers. The Individualized Competency allows for a stackable credential that helps NEDP participants to enter the workforce, upgrade skills, advance to a better job, or move from one field of work to another. 12
13 College and Career Competency, cont. 1. Occupational/vocational skills document work experience that provides the foundational skills to be successful in any job. 2. Specialized skills - demonstrate specialized competencies that provide a possible source of independent income, entry-level job skills, or active participation in community volunteer activities or self-employed business success. Transition to Postsecondary Education Competency - demonstrate readiness for postsecondary education. 13
14 Looking at the Research (OECD) Much of learning takes place outside formal education. Learning occurs in a range of settings, including within the family, at the workplace and through selfdirected individual activity. Problem solving in technology-rich environments defined. The ability to use digital technology, communication tools and networks to acquire and evaluate information, communicate with others and perform practical tasks. Skilled for Life? Key Findings from the Survey of Adult Skills Organization for Economic Cooperation and Development 2013 oecd.org 14
15 Applicability of NEDP Skills Skills needed for college and careers are applied in performance tasks in life and work contexts. Foundation Skills And Core Subjects Reading Writing Listening/Speaking Mathematics Information and Communication Technology Media Literacy Geography History Science 21 st Century Themes In Context Areas 21 st Century Workplace Cultural Literacy Civic Literacy and Community Participation Financial Literacy and Consumer Awareness Health Literacy Self-Efficacy Skills Self-assessment Goal Setting Learning to learn Critical Thinking Problem solving Time Management Working independently 15
16 Common Core State Standards (CCSS) These standards define the knowledge and skills students should have within their K-12 education careers so that they will graduate high school able to succeed in entrylevel, credit-bearing academic college courses and in workforce training programs. The standards: Are aligned with college and work expectations; Are clear, understandable and consistent; Include rigorous content and application of knowledge through highorder skills; Build upon strengths and lessons of current state standards; Are informed by other top performing countries, so that all students are prepared to succeed in our global economy and society; and Are evidence-based Common Core State Standards Initiative 16
17 CCSS and CCR Standards The Common Core State Standards (CCSS) were developed using the most effective models from states and countries around the world CCSS provides stakeholders with a common understanding of what students should know at each grade level Consistent standards will provide uniform benchmarks for all students, regardless of where they live The College and Career Readiness (CCR) Standards provide anchors for the CCSS and the basis for Adult Education Standards 17
18 CCR Standards for Adult Education The College and Career Readiness (CCR) Standards consist of broad-based knowledge and skills that graduates can put to good use regardless of their specific educational or career objectives. College and Career Readiness Toolkit Mills 2013 nd.gov/cte The CCR Standards for Adult Education address the need to identify a manageable set of the CCSS most indispensable for college and career readiness and important to adult students. College and Career Readiness Standards for Adult Education Pimentel 2013 lincs.ed.gov/publications Updated NEDP-CCR alignment will inform ongoing development and enhancements 18

I know how to handle an interview and keep a job and continue to further my education, even after I find the job I m looking for. NEDP Client 35
36 NEDP in the News Utica Observer-Dispatch Posted Jun 11, 07:00 AM Amanda Greene s youngest child started school, the stay-at-home mom knew it was time for her to look for a job. But job hunting is challenging, especially for people like the 28-year-old Middleville resident who don t have a high school diploma. Greene had tried the GED program, but it wasn t for her. Then she discovered the lesser-known National External Diploma Program, which has been around since the mid-1970s. I wouldn t have to take a test, she said. It was shorter for me, had easier material and was more one-on-one if you needed help. The NEDP uses students life skills to award credit rather than the more test-based evaluations of the general equivalency diploma program, or taking high school night classes. And, starting July 1, the program will become more accessible and possibly better known when it moves online across the nation. <Read more: 36
