Self-Paced Training Opportunities!

Immigrant Connections and English Learner Portal proudly present:
 
We need strong partnerships as we move forward, particularly with our immigrant and EL families, and we need the skills and resources to do so. This training is for teachers, counselors, parent liaisons, and anyone else looking for strategies to support their work in this area.

In this training, you'll:
  • explore tools and resources for EL and immigrant families to support their children’s learning at home
  • examine the benefits of partnering with refugee and immigrant organizations in the community during this time;
  • review federal requirements for providing parents with information in a language they understand and how those can be met during the pandemic; and
  • share solutions for connecting with EL and immigrant families who have been hard to reach.
(If this training sounds familiar, you're right!  I taught this course live in July and August.  The content remains the same; the only difference is that it's self-paced and includes additional readings, resources, and online discussion, which bumps it up to 5 hours.)
