Abstract

Working adult learners are twice as likely as traditional learners to leave community college without a credential. This report provides the first evaluation of a program — Achieve Your Degree — to increase community college access and completion among working adult learners. The authors also offer recommendations for implementing employer–community college partnerships and other AYD program components to support working adult learners nationwide.
