Action:
Amend Regulations Following Periodic Review
Action 6607
General Information
| Action Summary |
This regulatory change is an amendment to an existing regulation. Section 22.1-224 requires, in part, that the Board “[r]equire the development of adult education programs in every school division” and “[p]romulgate appropriate standards and guidelines for adult education programs.” Chapter 8VAC20-30 requires local school officials to be responsible for evaluating and awarding credit for educational achievement.
However, when an adult high school diploma is awarded to an adult student who demonstrates through full mastery of an applied performance assessment full mastery, there is no longer a need to rely solely upon the January 2013 version (5.0) of the National External Diploma Program Competencies or incorporate the January 2013 version by reference into this regulatory chapter.
The Board will approve the National External Diploma Program to meet the requirements of 8VAC20-30-20(3)(c). |
