Abstract | During FY 1992-93, Utah's adult education program served 19,863 adults aged 18 years and older and 3,377 students aged 17 years and under. Adult basic education (ABE) programs served at least 7,335 adults in 27 of the state's 40 school districts and in correctional facilities, applied technology centers, the Salt Lake Skills Center, and several technical and community colleges. English as a Second Language (ESL) and adult refugee education was provided to 3,959 students, and literacy, General Educational Development (GED), and high school completion instruction was provided to 1,268 adults in correctional facilities. ESL, ABE, and GED programs were also provided to 581 eligible legalized aliens and 1,872 homeless people. Of the 5,624 individuals who completed GED testing, 4,089 received passing scores. General adult education (lifelong learning) programs were provided in all of Utah's 40 school districts, 5 applied technology centers, and several community colleges. A total of $5,841,000 in state and federal funds was invested in adult education programs in Utah in FY 1992-93. It was estimated that those expenditures resulted in a total of $12,253,719 in new tax revenues and public assistance savings for a net return on investment of $6,412,719 (which equals a 109.78% annual percentage rate of return).
