(105 ILCS 405/2-2) (from Ch. 122, par. 202-2)
Sec. 2-2.
Agreement with public or private agencies.
The State Board shall
enter into agreements with public or private welfare, educational, or
other agencies, other than the public common schools, competent to provide the
education or training defined in said Section, for the establishment of such
special classes by such agencies.
The Board shall establish the
standards for such courses of instruction and supervise the
administration thereof. The Board shall determine
the cost of such instruction, including therein such incidental costs of
student transportation, facilities, or provision for child care for
students who are parents, and other special needs of the students, as
authorized by Section 10-22.20 of the School Code.
The provisions of Section 10-22.20 of the School Code respecting the
reimbursement of the total cost of such instruction or training by the
Department of Employment Security for
students who may be authorized under the Illinois Public Aid Code,
approved April 11, 1967, shall be applicable to classes established
under this Act. Each agency entering into an agreement shall keep
accurate and detailed accounts of students assigned to it and receiving
instruction in such special classes and submit claims for reimbursement
in the manner provided for school districts or community college districts
under said Section 10-22.20, and claims for reimbursement shall be
processed as therein provided.
Any such agreement may be terminated by the Board
when it determines (1) that such classes are no longer
necessary, or (2) that the instruction or training established by an
agency fails to meet the established standards, or (3) that the classes
established by a school district or community college district, within
whose geographical limits the agency is located, pursuant to Section
10-22.20 of the School Code, are adequate for the purpose.

Area Planning Councils.
On or before October 15, 1982, an Area
Planning Council shall be established within the boundaries of each
community college district. Each school district included within the
boundaries
of the community college district maintaining either grades kindergarten
through 12 or grades 9 through 12; each regional superintendent of schools,
the majority of whose region
is included within the boundaries of the community college district; and
the community college district shall be entitled to one representative on
the Area Planning Council. Area Planning Councils may elect to form a joint
Area Planning Council consisting of 2 or more community college
districts
as approved by the Board. School districts which are not included within
the boundaries of a community college district may elect to participate
in an Area Planning Council associated with a community college district
with the approval of the Board; or they may elect to establish an
Area Planning Council which is not associated with a community college district
with the approval of the Board.
On or before March 1 of each year each Area Planning Council shall submit
an annual Adult Education Plan for the area. The Area Adult Education Plan
shall provide for the development and coordination of adult education programs
in the area. If the Board finds that the annual Area Adult Education
Plan submitted by the Area Planning Council meets the requirements of this
amendatory
Act of 1982 and the established standards and guidelines, the Board shall approve the Plan. The approval of adult education
programs
by the Board for reimbursement under Section
10-22.20
of the School Code shall be based on the Adult Education Plan approved for the
Area.
On or before March 1, 2002 and each year thereafter, the Board shall submit
an annual report to the Governor and the General
Assembly for adult education for the preceding school year. The annual
report shall include a summary of adult education needs and programs; the
number of students, credit hours or units of instruction, total adult education
costs, and State reimbursement for adult basic, adult secondary and vocational
skills programs; the criteria used for program approval and any
recommendations.
