Program Support

The SABES Program Support PD Center is a project of the US Division at World Education, Inc. in Boston, MA. Our goal is to work in creative and responsive ways to provide professional development according to our system’s High Quality Professional Development (HQPD) Standards. These HQPD Standards and our work are designed to build our collective capacity to maximize opportunities for the adult learners we serve.

This PD Center provides support in the following nine priority areas:

Career Pathways; Advising; ADA Resources and Training; and Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion; led by Curriculum and PD Specialist Dani Scherer: dani_scherer@worlded.org
Program Management and Educational Leadership; Digital Literacy and Distance Education; Professional Licensure Support, LACES, and Connecting Adults with Adult Education Programs, led by Director Luanne Teller: luanne_teller@worlded.org

We are pleased to be authorized to issue Professional Development Points (PDPs). Please contact Luanne_teller@worlded.org if you are interested in more information about PDPs for eligible professional development offerings.
