In March of 2011, ACE joined with Pearson VUE to remake the GED Testing Service as a for-profit entity. The New York State Regents, concerned about the higher cost of the GED® exam, as well as “changes in the administration and content of the GED® test scheduled to begin in January 2014”2 directed the New York State Education Department to issue a competitive RFP process to seek an alternative to the GED®. Through that process, CTB-McGraw Hill was selected to develop a new exam, and in January 2014, a new HSE assessment, Test Assessing Secondary Completion (TASC), was introduced in New York State.  \nGiven the widely felt concern about the implications of the introduction of a new HSE exam, NYCCAL made the decision to conduct a Survey of adult literacy programs to learn how students were doing on the new TASC. The Survey was distributed widely to the adult literacy field, and practitioners were encouraged to provide information on their experience with the new TASC. Program participation was fairly broad and included 28 CBO’s, two Educational Opportunity Centers (EOC’s), one CUNY College, a SUNY program, and two union programs. There were no responses from the NYC DOE, the largest of the adult literacy providers in New York City.  \nIn total, 36 surveys were received. Two agencies submitted data twice on the same program. Those agencies were contacted and identified which entry to be included in the data. Another agency submitted two entries for two separate HSE programs, and both were included in the Survey. Three agencies responded, but did not offer HSE preparation. Thus, what follows is a summary and analysis of the information provided by 30 agencies on 31 unique adult literacy programs. A listing of all the programs that responded appears at the end of the report. With regard to data contained in this report, programs were asked to answer questions to the best of their ability, and to approximate numbers where exact figures were not readily available.  \nQuestion. 1. Does your program prepare students for the HSE Exam?  \nThree programs reported that they do not prepare students for the exam. These agencies simply recorded their contact information as requested in the instructions.  \n1New York City Coalition on Adult Literacy  \n2 News release of March 7, 2013 from the New York State Education Department  \nOnly programs that provide HSE preparation responded to questions 2 – 13. The following summarizes their responses:  \nQuestion 2. How many students are you currently preparing for the HSE exam?  \nFor the 31 programs that provide HSE preparation, survey responses varied from a low of 1 to a high of 200. Six programs prepared between 100 and 200 students. Ten programs prepared between 50 and 100 students, and fifteen programs prepared under 50 students. The overall total number of students being prepared for the HSE exam at the time of the Survey was 1,846 .  \nQuestion 3. Is your program a HSE Testing Site?  \nTwelve responded “Yes” and thirteen indicated “No”. Even though programs with testing centers may have tested students from outside their programs, they were asked, for purposes of this Survey, only to report on students prepared for the HSE exam by their program.  \nQuestion 4. How many students have you referred to the TASC exam since it was introduced in January of 2014?  \nPrograms reported referrals for a total of 1,345 students. Five programs reported referring 100 or more students, five referred 50 or more students, and twenty-one referred between zero and 45 students.  \nQuestion 5. How many students received test results?  \nPrograms were asked to report on the number of students who had been referred ","cbCaimmznDTWxivN","https://ap.wps.com/l/cbCaimmznDTWxivN","pdf",541419,"English","# Survey background\n## GED transition to TASC\n## Survey distribution and response overview\n# Survey findings\n## HSE preparation and student volume\n## Testing site status\n## Referrals and test result metrics\n## Pass rates and context","[{\"question\":\"What were the overall referral, results-received, and pass-rate figures?\",\"answer\":\"Programs reported 1,345 referrals for testing, results received for 1,037 students (77%), and 703 passes (67.8%) among those with results.\"}]","NYCCAL HSE Working Group HSE Survey Summary - December 2014 and January 2015 | PDF",23]
