This booklet provides information and direction to community college personnel who wish to offer adult high school diploma programs. The various elements needed for the operation and maintenance of an adult high school diploma program in Oregon are presented here, in two parts. Part I lists elements that are essential in any plan submitted to the State Department of Education and is organized into four sections: filing a plan for an adult high school diploma program, curriculum, student services, and program administration. Part II is advisory in nature, providing a basis for preapring planned course statements for high school completion classes and including areas of competence and indicators of competence for every area addressed in the state's high school graduation requirements. These areas of competence go beyond current state minimums, incorporating earlier life role categories such as "citizen in the environment," was well as new areas such as global studies, foreign language, and applied arts. The state legislation that mandates the adult program is included in the appendix to the guide. (KC)
