Session Description:
Are you a new family literacy practitioner in a CALP-funded program? Are you curious about how family literacy programming can reach adult foundational learners while supporting learning for the whole family? In this participatory training, CALP-funded staff will learn what family literacy programming is, how well suited it is to the needs of adult foundational learners and their families, and which practices support effective CALP-funded family literacy programs. To support your program in aligning to the CALP Guidelines, you will also gain an understanding of the programming requirements for family literacy programs as outlined in the CALP Guidelines.
In addition to the face-to-face training workshop there are 2 other components to this training:
1) Pre-learning module: After you’ve registered, you will receive an email from CLN with a learning module for you to complete and return prior to attending the training. It is expected to take 30 minutes to complete. This independent learning module focuses on fundamental content that you will need to be successful in this training. It will cover elements of the CALP guidelines as it relates to CALP family literacy programs.
2) Coffee hour: Please check the date of the coffee hour for this training below to mark on your calendar. Following completion of the face-to-face training you will receive an email with a short survey and a link to register for the coffee hour. This 1.5 hour online session will explore ways to extend the learning from the training workshop and will focus on the experiences, questions and reflections of the participants in the group.
