You can skip the pre-workshop chatter between Central SABES and the presenters by advancing the presentation to Time Marker +4:00 @ 14:05, the start of the presentation. Also make note that Kim Ward is a little soft spoken so you should put you speaker volume up a little. She beings her piece of the presentation "The Local Perspective" @ 38:14

Details:
Live from Washington! I-BEST (Integrated ABE and Skills Training) is an instruction model that builds ABE and/or ESOL education skills and college level workforce education skills together, challenging the traditional idea that such learning must take place sequentially. The premise of I-BEST is to provide just the right level of ABE/ESL in just the right amount for students to succeed in college-level workforce education training programs. I-BEST also lays the groundwork so students can continue on in training or come back for additional training after they go to work. I-BEST is offered in all 34 of Washington s community and technical colleges.
