Eligibility

Adult Education Program Enhancement Projects (PEP)
The primary purpose of the Program Enhancement Project (PEP) grant is to increase the capacity of Connecticut’s eligible providers to deliver the needed educational and support services to adult learners in the five workforce development areas. Under WIOA, AEFLA's purposes have been expanded to include assisting adults to transition to postsecondary education and training, including through career pathway programs. Further, WIOA formalizes the role of adult education in assisting English language learners to acquire the skills needed to succeed in the 21st-century economy.
