Technical Assistance and Coaching
World Education provides customized technical assistance and coaching to build the capacity of adult education systems, programs, institutions, and practitioners. We consult with our clients to develop products and processes that will make them more effective. As part of our technical assistance, we may also conduct evaluations and needs assessments.

Our coaching services encourage and support clients to develop their own education solutions. World Education helps clients stay the course as they implement the activities and services that will help accomplish their specific goals.

Examples:
  • Assisting low-performing adult education programs to improve their internal processes and services in order to increase their adult learners' academic achievement.
  • Designing and conducting needs assessments and evaluations of programs and state systems.
  • Designing teacher mentoring models with training and support protocols.
  • Researching and writing papers on system impact and other topics.
  • Facilitating strategic planning processes.
  • Developing customized instructional content and support services.
  • Facilitating and supporting communities of practice.
  • Designing and implementing demonstration projects and pilot programs.
  • Developing requests for proposals (RFPs) and managing grantee selection processes.
  • Evaluating policies and practices to plan system-level initiatives.
  • Coaching and training for system-wide professional development.
  • Coaching states and practitioners to develop and implement adult education standards.
  • Coaching community colleges at the system and institution levels to implement effective program models that integrate basic skills with career and technical education.
