Transcript Implementing Holistic Programming

Implementing Holistic Programming
Learning Objectives:
Participants will:
1. Will be introduced to the concept and challenges of bundled
and integrated (B&I) services and prepare a basic B&I plan.
2. Learn the process of creating outcome scales and how they
measure incremental change.
3. Learn how to construct and use a Outcome Matrix
4. Will develop basic resources and plans to implement B&I
concept programs upon completion of this presentation
Bundled and Integrated Services
 Early evidence indicates that clients who receive
bundled services are three to four times more likely to
achieve a major economic outcome(such as staying
employed, earning a certification or associate’s degree
or buying a car) than clients receiving only one type of
service.
 How many programs nationally in Adult Education focus
ONLY on educational outcomes?
Provision of Service Model
 Most programs offer more than one service but they do
so in a less effective way. Programs must both bundle
and integrate services to increase outcomes.
 Bundled: The concept of offering multiple services to
increase large scope outcomes in a single program.
 Integrated: Services are not isolated interventions but
reconfigured within a holistic curricula to reduce student
life cycle while maximizing impact.
Planning Bundled Services Programs
 Delivering integrated and bundled services requires well
planned program design, the hiring and training of staff
with strong skills and backgrounds, and thoughtful use of
technology and data collection.
 DISCUSSION:
In small groups of 3-5, take 10 minutes and list current
program challenges in moving to an integrated and
bundled program concept.
LIST OF CHALLENGES
 1.
OUTCOME SCALES
 An Outcome Scale is a continuum that describes
different states or conditions of status.
 An excellent example of a simple outcome scale is the
gas gauge. Full being the “most desirable” and E being
“least desirable”.
OUTCOME SCALE PRACTICE
 Create an outcome scale for a ABE or ASE program.
(5 minutes)
 Now create an outcome scale for an Integrated and
bundled service program offering ABE/ASE and a
longitudinal outcome of post-secondary education or
workforce.
OUTCOME MATRICES
 A more complex outcome scale is the outcome Matrix.
Outcome matrices are necessary in order to create
strong B&I programming accountability and
improvement.
 An example will be handed out. In groups look at the
example. Think of the services you wish to offer in B&I
program. Take 15 minutes to begin creating your own
matrix.
NEXT STEPS
 Create Logic Model based on ideal program outcomes
and services needed to reach these short, intermediate
and long term outcomes (Scales and Matrices)
 Locate willing partners and funding sources
 Develop an MOU to guide collaborations
 Implement/Revise program, collect data and evaluate.
Repeat.

CONCLUSION
 Creating integrated and bundled service programs takes
1. Committed and strong partnerships
2. Strong planning including delineation of program
responsibility (including funding and costs), creation of
holistic curricula, onsite resources and navigators, and
data collection and evaluation.
