Professional Development
The LAC offers professional development and technical assistance for literacy instructors and program managers who want to improve their practice. We serve programs for adults and adolescents that offer basic education in reading, writing, and math; English for speakers of other languages (ESOL); civics and citizenship; and GED preparation. Our professional development in family literacy focuses on programs that work with parents and children to support learning and scholastic achievement. Our health literacy initiative creates partnerships and offers training to instructors so that learners can lead healthier lives. Our instructional technology programs show instructors and program managers how to integrate distance learning, computers, and multimedia tools into instruction. Our Professional Development Center, which includes a library and a computer lab, provides a wealth of resources for literacy instruction.
