Acquisition Information

In 2004, after the records retention period required for federally funded contracts expired, the Sacramento County Office of Education forwarded the SDI records to the CA Adult Education Archives. In 2005, the Archives obtained the assistance of the last Director of SDI, Margaret Kirkpatrick, to review the retained records and identify those that had archival value. Some records such as purchasing forms and confidential personnel files were shredded. Ms. Kirkpatrick provided a preliminary organization of the remaining nine boxes of materials that were related to SDI programs and products. In 2007, the Archives Specialist processed and organized the collection and prepared detailed box indexes.

Administrative History

The California Staff Development Institute (SDI) was funded from 1994 to 2000 by the California Department of Education, Adult Education Unit with its federal adult education leadership monies. The contractor was the Sacramento County Office of Education (SCOE). "The Staff Development Institute consolidated staff development projects that previously were funded separately: the ESL Teachers Institute, the Adult Literacy Instructors' Training Institute, the Adult Education Leadership Training Program, and the Professional Resources Outreach System. The primary goals of SDI were providing professional development for implementing the model standards of adult education, offering models for the use of technology, targeting change agents for training, and establishing mentoring systems. The institute facilitated hundreds of professional development activities for thousands of adult education instructors and administrators. It utilized new technologies for distance learning and multimedia learning for delivering staff development training and developed online modules on topics such as family literacy, instructional software evaluation, and classroom use of SCANS competencies. The Adult Education Leadership Institute evolved and expanded under SDI. A process for identifying exemplary adult programs was established, and 34 Programs of Excellence were recognized in 1997-98, 1998-99, and 1999-2000." West, L.L., 2005. Meeting the Challenge: A History of Adult Education in California from the Beginnings to the Twenty-first Century, 89. California Department of Education. The Technical Director of the Staff Development Institute was K. Lynn Savage, who had previously been Director of the ESL Teacher Institute. She was joined in the first year by an Administrative Director, Joan Dailey Polster, a Vice Principal of Adult Education from Sacramento City Unified School District. Mrs. Polster became the sole director in 1995. In 1998 Mrs. Polster joined the California Department of Education as the Administrator of the Adult Education Office and State Director of Adult Education. She was succeeded at SDI by Margaret Kirkpatrick, a visiting educator from Berkeley Adult School, where she was Principal.
