An evaluation of the Boston Workplace Education Collaborative (BWEC) was conducted during 1989. The BWEC is a partnership among Roxbury Community College, the Boston Private Industry Council, and the American Federation of Labor-Congress of Industrial Organizations (AFL-CIO) of Massachusetts to provide workplace literacy educational opportunities to adult workers. Methods used in the evaluation included personal interviews with a sampling of staff, students, union, and employer representatives; a comprehensive review of key documents; and observation of meetings of the project's advisory committee. Among the findings were the following: (1) BWEC was highly successful in developing and delivering educational services in an efficient, timely, and effective manner; (2) a high level of demand for classes and very consistent attendance were found; (3) employers were satisfied with the effect on employee performance and especially self-esteem; and (4) there was a high level of student satisfaction with instructors, class locations, the hours of the classes, and what they are learning. Areas identified for improvement were provision of more English-as-a-Second-Language classes; more relationship between the curriculum and the jobs of the students; smaller classes; ability grouping for classes; lengthening the classes from 15 weeks to at least 1 year; provision of counseling for students; and more feedback to employers about the progress of their employees.
