Purpose


Coalition Focus
ABEC is a long-term effort designed to:
  • increase the trust between the business and education communities;
  • acknowledge their synergies and symbiotic relationship;
  • develop respect and understanding for each others needs, missions, and methodologies;
  • be a credible source for education-related data and their interpretation; and
  • provide a common voice for education in the state.
Initial Coalition Issues
ABEC supported the principles behind Arizona LEARNS and plans to become a part of implementation planning. ABEC members have agreed to support the principles of the Governor�s Task Force efforts on accountability dealing with the K-3 reading initiative. ABEC is also committed to the resolution of concerns regarding implementation of this program.
