| CFDA Number: | 84.141A - High School Equivalency Program |
| Program Goal: To assist migrant and seasonal farmworker students in obtaining the equivalent of a high school diploma, and, subsequently, to begin postsecondary education, enter military service, or obtain employment. |
| Objective 1 of 1: An increasing percentage of HEP participants will complete the program and receive their GED. |
| Indicator 1.1 of 1: GED completion: The number and percentage of HEP participants who complete the program and receive the GED will continue to remain high, if not increase. |
Source: HEP grantee performance reports. Frequency: Annually. Next Data Available: April 2006 Data Validated By: No Formal Verification. Limitations: OME is working with grantees to provide detailed information in its annual performance reports. Explanation: The percentage of HEP students who receive the GED decreased for several reasons. First, the GED requirements changed. Secondly, grantees had difficulties getting students tested at GED testing centers. Finally, many of the centers were not prepared to test in Spanish. In addition, new projects experienced difficulties because of late grant notification dates. The performance targets are developed by dividing the number of HEP students who received the GED by the number of students funded to be enrolled in GED instruction. |
