Model Programs of Study Guides Released
As part of the Perkins V Plan in the State of Illinois, Model Programs of Study are being developed and articulated through specific guides for each program. Support for these efforts was provided by the Illinois Community College Board (ICCB), and leadership for the development and publication of these guides was led by Northern Illinois University’s Education Systems Center. Four guides have been released in the following areas:
- Education
- Health Sciences & Technology
- Information Technology
- Manufacturing & Engineering
Each of these guides is available on the Model Programs of Study page of the Education Systems Center website.
Additionally, public comment is open on the draft guides using this Model Programs of Study Guides Feedback Survey through August 28, 2020.
July 2020Survey – What support do you need with Perkins V?

The following websites include resources and support documentation from these state agencies:
Based on feedback from school districts and community colleges, Education Systems Center, the Center for Governmental Studies, and the P-20 Network, all based out of Northern Illinois University, are seeking to determine if there are additional needs related to the Perkins V processes, and if so, how our organizations may be able to assist. This short survey is designed to provide that feedback to know what needs may exist that require additional support.
