http://dese.mo.gov/divcareered/AEL_cqi.htm - Based on the Missouri Adult Education and Literacy (AEL) State Plan, the state AEL office is required to conduct on-site reviews of all AEL programs at least once every 5 years. This review process includes grant/contract compliance, data, program operation, and fiscal reviews.
