a lot that people would like to know what other organizations are offering in foundational adult learning. Do you have something to share with your colleagues? Or maybe you are looking for the perfect next step for some of your learners. To help with this, we will offer the attendees the opportunity to display and/or provide information to the other event participants during the lunch hour. We hope to start this tradition and continue this for all our events.
