This webinar entitled ABE State Performance Accountability Framework is intended to help ABE directors, teachers, advisors and other stakeholders understand the Measurable Skills Gains (MSG) standard in the new MA accountability framework for adult education. Participants will be able to describe the new ACLS performance accountability system, list the components of the MSG standard, understand how MSG individual program targets will be calculated and assigned, and describe the MSG reporting period.

Participants will also learn more about how the new accountability system focuses more on outcomes than on processes and how flexibility will play a key role in this process. They will also understand which of the current standards will no longer be used but still tracked for program effectiveness.
