Oregon's 40-40-20 & Achievement Compacts

The  Oregon Education Investment Board (OEIB) , chaired by the Governor and consisting of 12 educators and community leaders from around Oregon, has been charged with overseeing the creation of a seamless, unified system for investing in and delivering public education  from early childhood through preparation for employment.  The goal of the OEIB is to aid Oregon in reaching an ambitious goal for educational attainment, known as 40-40-20.  Approved by the Oregon Legislature in 2011 in Senate Bill 253, the 40-40-20 goal is that by the year 2025, 40% of adult Oregonians will hold a bachelor’s or advanced degree, 40% will have an associate’s degree or a meaningful postsecondary certificate, and all adult Oregonians will hold a high school diploma.

To foster Oregon reaching the 40-40-20 goal, Under 2012's Senate Bill 1581, the Oregon Education Investment Board (OEIB) will enter into Achievement Compacts  with each of Oregon's educational sectors -  K-12 school districts, education service districts, community colleges, the university system and individual universities, and Oregon Health Sciences University. These two-way partnership agreements challenge educators across Oregon to set targets on key student outcomes and encourage broad collaboration to adopt transformational practices, policies and budgets to help students achieve the educational outcomes valued by Oregonians. Each educational sector agreed to a standard set of outcome measures and to setting targets of achievement for each measure. Achievement Compacts will be submitted to the state on an annual basis.
