National Literacy Missions
Leadership Workshop
is changing!
We recently learned that our 2020 Leadership Workshop venue will not be open to groups this summer. Our Leadership Team and Workshop Leaders are working to develop a hybrid online/live Leadership Workshop. For this summer only, there will be different starting and ending dates for each training track. Please remember that this is a work in progress and that some details are yet to be finalized.. Here is information that applies to all three training tracks:
English as a Second Language
Adult Reading and Writing
Tutoring Children and Youth
Tutoring Children and Youth Update—fully online (no Zoom or live session)
Tutoring Children and Youth Update Application
Update Training Workshops
Training is provided through the National Literacy Missions Partnership.
- Leadership Workshop will be limited to new applicants only. Updating leaders will take a different course.
- Participants will be given access to the online portion of the course on a specific date.
- Once the registration fee has been received, the participant will receive a paper copy of the guidelines. PowerPoints and handouts will be available after the live portion is completed.
- The course will require the participant to complete and submit assignments that the workshop leader will assess.
- Participants will be given about 5 weeks to complete.
- During the live portion of the workshop, participants will be assessed on their skills.
- We are not completely certain when the live portion of the workshops will be or whether they will have to be done through video conference. If it is through video conferencing, each track will have its own schedule. If we are able to do face-to-face at a facility, all three tracks will be together.
- This also allows us to push our registration dates to later.
- Registration fee remains $85 for Partner States and $170 for non-Partner States
