Abstract:
Adult ABE/ESL students often lack the learning strategies necessary to be successful in remote learning environments. Educators can promote students’ engagement and retention in remote learning by embedding resilience-building strategies and self-regulation skills in the curriculum. The webinar introduces an innovative perspective on how to integrate the affective with the cognitive domain in remote instruction. Attendees will contribute expertise, practice skills learned in the webinar, and engage in self-reflection. Original webinar date: July 22, 2021 Webinar recording link: https://youtu.be/2p0kQ9nR72Y

Abstract:
Skills integration is not a new concept; however, the practice has new focus after WIOA legislation changed requirements for its government-funded programs. Currently, those programs are required to implement Integrated Education and Training (IET) to accelerate learning and place native and non-native speakers into jobs earlier and better prepared than before. This webinar will define WIOA expectations, evaluate five models that meet those expectations, and explore instructional strategies and resources to make it all happen.

Abstract:
The pandemic has made it clear that high-quality, virtual learning is now a necessity, and it has highlighted the need to address issues of access and equity, especially with chronically underserved populations. While there is a national focus on apprenticeship and other workforce development programs, they have too often left English language learners behind. Come join this webinar to learn how to create English language onramps for existing job skills programs, effectively integrating employment and training programs for non-native speakers entering healthcare, manufacturing, food and beverage, and other in-demand career fields. Drawing on decades of research and experience in the fields of adult learning, immigrant integration, and workforce training, this webinar will offer relevant, practical advice to organizations looking to quickly and effectively upskill and reskill English learners with the tools they need for career development and economic mobility.
