Management Systems for Adult Learning (MSAL) is available to state and local adult education and literacy programs for all data collection needs. Designed by a team of adult educators, this system will provide the needed data, including data necessary for Federal Annual Performance Report and gives funding accountability to state and local programs. MSAL provides all needed for student records including demographics, enrollment, attendance, testing, achievement, juvenile, special needs, and instructor comment screen. Customization is one of the strongest features of the MSAL system. Most customization falls into three categories:

• Screen layout and date entry
• State specified data
• Custom reports

There are no additional costs to customize your system. The MSAL installation process establishes a state database which is served by multiple sub state installation sites at the region, county, or district levels. Each sub state site electronically communicates directly with the state system. Electronic data transfer is embedded in the MSAL software. Data is not transferred via e-mail.
