Overview

Let’s tackle this together! 

For new directors and veteran directors of newly funded adult education programs, the first months and years can be a unique challenge as you learn how to do your job, while also leading and supporting everyone around you. If you’re wondering where to even begin or are looking for resources and colleagues to support you, join us for this 60-minute meet and greet with SABES. 

At SABES, we strive to be a valuable resource and partner for you and members of your team. This “meet and greet” session is designed to provide new directors with an overview of the SABES professional development (PD) system. You will have the opportunity to meet directors from the five SABES centers—Math & Numeracy; English Language Arts (ELA); ESOL; Program Support; and the SABES Communication Center—and begin a conversation about the many ways we can work together in support of high-quality programs and student outcomes.

We also want to hear from you! While we will provide you with information about SABES, the primary purpose of this meeting is to build relationships as a first step of what we hope will be enduring collaborative efforts.
