AEWG Brief 2019
The AEWG’s goal is to improve the quality of AEPs through developing guidance and tools to support a more harmonized, standardized approach to Accelerated Education.
In recent years, Accelerated Education programs (AEPs) have been employed with greater scope and scale as one of several solutions to the intractable issues of attracting and retaining out of school and overage learners within the formal education system. Yet, widespread variation exists in how AEPs are planned, implemented, and approached, with little or no overarching objectives, guidance, standards or indicators for what effective Accelerated Education (AE) provision looks like.
This brief illustrates AEWG's role in Accelerated Education, and their three main areas of work for 2019.
