Dear colleagues,

 

This announcement may be of interest to those of you who are starting
college transitions programs. One hurdle for adult education students in
entering postsecondary education is scoring high enough on the college
placement exam to be placed in classes that are beyond the first
developmental level.

 

The online course "Research-based Strategies and Models for Adult
Transitions to Postsecondary Education" is now open for registration. In
this course you will read and discuss the research on the changing workforce
and examine the reasons why adult learners need to go beyond the GED to
advance their earning potential.  Plus you will examine program models that
support adult transitions to postsecondary education. 

 

For more information about the course, or to register, go to
http://professionalstudiesae.worlded.org/index.html#trans. Course dates are
October 8, 2009, to December 9, 2009. 

 

To ensure a seat, register early. Registrations will be accepted on a first
come basis.

 

If you have any questions about registering for these courses please contact
Leah Peterson at lpeterson at worlded.org. 

 

Best,

Kaye
