Katrina,
Have you come across Verizon Literacy Campus? It is a joint project with
Proliteracy Worldwide and  NCFL. Their website offers a selection of short,
free online courses (each takes about 45 minutes to an hour) intended to
help literacy programs and volunteers. Some of the courses might be useful
to your new instructors.
