Abstract

The purpose of this report is to provide performance data on Iowa's adult basic education target populations based on the Comprehensive Adult Student Assessment System (CASAS) Employment Competency System (ECS) Appraisal Form 130 in the areas of reading and mathematics. This report is designed to supplement the data reported in the study titled A Workforce Basic Skills Norming Study of Iowa's JTPA and PROMISE JOBS Target Populations. The Norming Study was designed to provide critical information about the basic skill levels required for Iowa's basic skills target populations to successfully pursue employment and further education (i.e., taking and passing the GED Tests) and enter vocational/technical training programs.
