Adult education teachers and administrators:

Have you ever wished you could have some input into decisions that are being
made nationally on professional development opportunities? If so, here is
your chance to express your opinion and share your thoughts.



The National Institute for Literacy is conducting a survey on the
professional development needs of adult education practitioners across the
country. We need your help to gather information that reflects your own
needs in the area of professional development as well as how you think
professional development should be offered. We are asking for only 10-15
minutes of your time.





Follow this link to take the survey at
http://www.nifl.gov/lincs/needssurvey/.





Information collected from the professional development needs survey will be
used by the Institute and the LINCS Regional Resource Centers to (1) give us
insights on how Institute-produced materials and training can be
disseminated and (2) identify areas where the Institute might want to
develop additional materials and trainings. The Regional Resource Centers
will use the data to develop a regional dissemination plan that will include
how to best disseminate and present Institute-sponsored resources and
training in partnership with the state organizations.



The National Institute for Literacy, a federal agency, provides leadership
on literacy issues, including the improvement of reading instruction for
children, youth, and adults. In consultation with the U.S. Departments of
Education, Labor, and Health and Human Services, the Institute serves as a
national resource on current, comprehensive literacy research, practice, and
policy.



The National Institute for Literacy is committed to the dissemination of
high-quality resources to help practitioners use evidence-based
instructional practices that improve outcomes in adult learners' literacy
skills. LINCS is the backbone of the Institute's dissemination system,
providing information on a wide variety of literacy relevant topics, issues,
and resources through regional resource centers, collections of resources,
and discussion lists. For more information about the National Institute for
Literacy and LINCS visit http://www.nifl.gov <http://www.nifl.gov/> .





NOTE: The valid OMB control number for this information collection is
1800-0011 v. 86.
