This webinar will dive into expanding the age range for PACT Time® activities by discovering a variety of experiences for children and parents of all ages. Most PACT Time resources that are available are focused on early childhood (0-8), but family literacy programming can serve families with children of any age and PACT Time activities need to reflect the age of those children. Join NCFL as we review available resources and dream up new ones! Original webinar date: December 12, 2025 Webinar recording link: https://youtu.be/t7WyRWSXgVE

Abstract:
Adult education programs are uniquely positioned to serve as a powerful talent pipeline for today’s employers. By equipping learners with industry-relevant skills and providing onsite training—such as English as a Second Language (ESL) instruction directly at the workplace—adult education strengthens businesses while opening doors for workers to advance. In this webinar, we’ll explore practical strategies for building effective partnerships between employers and adult education programs. Featuring insights from Bryan Seck, former Kawasaki executive and now Executive Director of Lincoln Literacy in Nebraska, participants will learn how collaboration can address workforce shortages, enhance retention, and create opportunities for learners. This webinar draws on lessons from COABE’s Invest in the Midwest tour, offering both inspiration and actionable ideas for programs looking to engage employers as partners in workforce development.
