ESOL Program Survey

Life after ESOL Programs

We know adult English language learners are enrolling in language programs every year.
Are ESOL programs adequately preparing these students to be fluent, proficient speakers of English after they exit the program and enter academia or the workforce?  Are they able to use English and meet the expectations in the academic setting and/or the workforce?  Do we know?

Are administrators, directors, and/or others collecting this information?  Do you need more funding to support tracking students who exit the program?
