    COMMISSION OF PROFESSORS OF ADULT EDUCATION Editor: Claudette Peterson North Dakota State University Designer: Sandra Kerka CPAE Spring 2015 ~ Vol. 18 ~ No. 1 Greetings from the Chair This is my first year as the Chair of the CPAE, and it is an engaging learning experi- ence. My experiences as Chair do not qualify as “transformative,” but they are “insightful” and evolving as I learn the nuances of this organization. I am pleased to share my learning journey with a talented and involved Executive Committee (EC) and other volunteers working on behalf of the commission. I thank Professors Ed Taylor and Cathy Hansman, who cochaired the CPAE Standards Committee. A draft of the revised standards was approved by the membership during our annual meeting in November. This draft has been updated, and it will soon be made avail- able to the membership. Members of the CPAE EC are currently involved in plan- ning the SIG and plenary sessions for the annual CPAE Fall Conference in Okla- homa City, OK. You should have already received the call for SIG proposals. Please respond to this call by sending a proposal to the appropriate SIG chair. The CPAE membership list is also being updated, and we are considering linking a directory of adult education programs to the CPAE website. Lastly, given the changes being proposed for the AAACE website, the CPAE website will likely undergo revisions. I am working with AAACE and the CPAE EC to determine what changes will be in the best interests of the organization. Why is your academic program relevant to the economic needs of our state? This question of relevance to the economic needs of the citizens of the state is challenging and complex.
