COABE and the Pennsylvania Association for Adult Continuing Education
(PAACE) invite you to submit a proposal for presentation at the 2007
COABE National Conference to be held in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania.
Conference dates are March 26 - 28, 2007 at the Sheraton Philadelphia
City Center.

The conference committee is interested in outstanding and innovative
practices in all aspects of adult education including basic literacy,
basic numeracy, workforce development, family literacy, English as a
Second Language, volunteer/community-based literacy, correctional
education, and all other areas.  The program committee is looking for
presentations based on successful implementation, current research,
and
sound practice.

In addition to general adult education interest areas, this year's
conference will have five special tracks. Those tracks are: 

Improving Teaching and Learning Outcomes 
Integrating Technology and Instruction 
Linking Research to Practice 
Promoting Adult Educators as Leaders 
Advancing Change Through Education 
 
Pennsylvania supports the needs of adult basic education through a
variety of providers such as school districts, community colleges,
community-based and faith-based organizations, local workforce
centers,
and correctional facilities.  COABE 07 hopes to feature exemplary
practices in these delivery systems and provide opportunities to
discuss
and exchange ideas with participants representing like agencies from
around the country.

Proposals are due no later than Saturday, November 18, 2006.
