Per student education
spending in Colorado
K-12: $9,500
Adult Education: $1,000
Colorado rural employers report persistent difficulty filling skilled positions.
CO is among the gross minority of
states, along with Puerto Rico and
D.C., providing $0 state cash to
match federal AEFLA funds.
Local funding and grantee contributions are the only source of CO's match, placing undue burden on already strapped providers and making it impossible to adequately serve the state's adult learners.

Essential Education Dream Catcher Seats
Dream Catcher Advance is an online, self-paced career planning course designed to help students figure out their true purpose and goals in life. Without connecting a student’s education path to their emotions and dreams, their education quickly loses its relevance and meaning. A series of powerful videos with real life stories helps the student find deep motivation for success and will help them stay focused and keep coming to class because they are connecting their efforts to their dreams. This course contains 25 lessons, videos, and practice activities as well as a built-in personal career planning journal and plan.
