Facilitated Online Courses
This page contains a list of VALRC’s current online courses. Each term (Fall, Winter, Spring), we offer different multiweek courses. These online courses provide in-depth explorations of evidence-based practices in a variety of adult education areas such as working with adults with disabilities; teaching English to speakers of other languages; and teaching reading, writing, and numeracy skills.
Online courses have closed enrollment and are facilitated by qualified leaders in the field. Participants who complete and submit all required coursework receive a certification of completion that may be used as evidence of professional learning.
Click on each course link for more information, including the course’s estimated weekly time commitment and target audience. Please note that VALRC uses the Canvas management system and all participants will require a Canvas Account in order to take these courses.
Note: If you do not already have a Canvas Account, then you will be given one after you register for a course. There is no need to request one.
