The AALPD discussion list is a great resource; the AALPD is, too.---Barb Garner ************ Colleagues: Are you interested in getting more involved with adult literacy professional development (PD)? And in contributing your voice along with other proponents of adult literacy PD? Would you like to take part in establishing (in the eyes of policy makers) the legitimacy of a national association of practitioners committed to adult literacy professional development? Whether or not you are a member of the NIFL-AALPD discussion list, we would like to invite you to become a formal member of the Association of Adult Literacy Professional Developers (AALPD). Membership in AALPD is open to adult educators interested or working in professional development in adult literacy. Individuals join AALPD by completing and submitting the Membership Form: http://wvabe.state.k12.wv.us/aalpd/ As we grow and expand, we want to know who our members are in order to advocate effectively for professional development and provide members with the best possible services. So, we are asking interested individuals to register as an AALPD member each year. IF YOU HAVE BEEN AN AALPD MEMBER PREVIOUSLY, PLEASE REGISTER AGAIN TO RENEW YOUR MEMBERSHIP. You do NOT have to become a member of AALPD in order to stay on the NIFL-AALPD discussion list, but we hope you will want to join AALPD. There is *NO FEE* to become a member. **MEMBERS VOTE FOR SLATE OF OFFICERS BY OCTOBER 30, 2003** On the membership page, you can also VOTE for the current slate of nominated AALPD officers (Chair, Vice-Chair and Secretary-Treasurer). <http://wvabe.state.k12.wv.us/aalpd/membership_form.htm> Why should you become a member of AALPD? * It's free! * You can vote for AALPD officers and on special issues that arise (ONLY AALPD MEMBERS WILL BE ELIGIBLE TO VOTE). * We will send you the latest information about upcoming trainings, events and resources. * You can have input into the design of the COABE pre-conference session next year (2004 in Columbus). * You can contribute your voice to our advocacy efforts. * You can help to establish AALPD's legitimacy in the eyes of policy makers by demonstrating a strong membership of concerned practitioners committed to professional development. I hope each of you will strongly consider formal membership to AALPD. Sincerely, Jackie Taylor List Facilitator, AALPD jataylor@utk.edu
