SUMMARY:COABE: Building Stronger Pipelines: Advancing IET and Apprenticeship Programs Through Language and Employer Partnerships
DESCRIPTION:As workforce needs shift and career pathways evolve\, integrated education and training (IET) and apprenticeship models offer powerful tools for helping adult learners access high-demand jobs. But how do programs move from planning to full-scale implementation and ensure these pathways are equitable and accessible for English learners? \nIn this webinar\, we will explore how adult education programs are building and expanding IET and apprenticeship pipelines through cross-sector collaboration\, employer partnerships\, and digital tools that support language and literacy instruction. Speakers will share real-world examples\, highlight common roadblocks\, and offer actionable strategies to increase access\, improve learner outcomes\, and meet workforce demand. The needs of special populations\, including internationally trained professionals will be explored. \nWhether you’re designing a new IET program or looking to take an existing model to the next level\, this webinar will provide practical insights and replicable strategies for building programs that work for both learners and employers. \nRegister here.
