The SABES PD Pathways offer suggested professional development (PD) pathways for staff who are new to their role or new to adult education in general. Whether you are new yourself, or a program leader looking to complement your organization's onboarding process, they can help you chart a course through the many PD offerings from SABES.
The Pathways are organized by role and, for instructors, by content area. They include suggestions for instructors teaching English Language Arts (ELA), ESOL, and Math, and also include recommendations for educational/program leaders and advisors. For each role or content area, they offer recommendations for where you might start in your first months or year, followed by additional recommendations as you grow your practice. They also include course format and an estimated number of hours for each course to help you plan ahead.
The PD Pathways are available in two formats: a print version designed in the Canva platform that is optimized for visual layout, and an accessible version in Microsoft Word that is designed specifically for compatibility with screen readers and assistive technology.
