Pasadena Convention Center
Join
SCLLN @ 2015 CLA Conference for
2 great workshops to help strengthen literacy services at your library.
Successful learning environments
for adult learners
Learning is ongoing–an everyday
process. In addition to one-to-one volunteer tutoring, some library literacy
programs hold small group sessions, larger classes and online
tutoring. How do you determine the “best” approach for each learner? How will
you know when it’s time to move to another group or try another type of
learning situation? And, how do you graduate someone from your program? A
panel of literacy program experts, facilitated by Diane Moseley, Literacy
Coordinator at the Huntington Beach Public Library,
will lead an in-depth discussion.
Exploring GED vs HiSET and other
High School Equivalency Options
Which Program is Right for
your Learners?
There is currently a lot of
confusion about the HiSET exam, the GED, TASC and Online Career High
School. It would be natural to think that since these options have
the same outcome—receiving a high school equivalency credential—that the
content of each would be relatively similar or equivalent. But is that true?
Are they all accepted equally by colleges? By employers? Cherall Weiss,
Literacy Coordinator for the Newport
Beach Public Library, will lead a panel discussion to
explore the differences in the options and how to decide
which one is right for your learners.
