DWD is seeking applications and proposals for adult education grant funds for program year 2024 and beyond from entities eligible to receive Workforce Innovation and Opportunity Act funds.
The grant funds programs that assist working-age adults with obtaining a secondary school diploma, such as a high school equivalency, and with transitioning to post-secondary education and training. The programs also assist migrants and other individuals through English language classes.
To be eligible for funding, an adult education provider must fall under one of the following categories: local education agency; community-based organization; volunteer organization; institution of higher education; a public or private not-for-profit; a library, or a public housing partner.
