ProLiteracy Online In-Service Workshops
The ProLiteracy Education Network website offers in-service workshops to enhance your tutoring skills. These courses are short, self-paced courses that are free and allow you to come back and complete the course at a later time.
ProLiteracy Education Network’s free online courses and reading materials guide tutors and volunteers in quality literacy instruction and lifelong learning habits. These courses focus on adult basic education (ABE), GED preparation, English language learning, reading, writing, numeracy, learning disabilities, assessment, goals setting, lesson planning, and parent education.
