This appears to be a very old announcement. The date is 2002. Perhaps you could contact NABE and see if thisd is an on-going activity.

I recently found the message below and would like to
know if anyone has information regarding the
conference mentioned.

A CORDIAL INVITATION
In the past, we've thought about bilingual education
in reference to
children. However, bilingual education can be a
dynamic and powerful tool to
help adults develop the skills they need to be
successful in the workplace.

>From El Paso to Milwaukee to New York, adult
bilingual education, especially
using Spanish, is taking hold.

Students in such programs participate in numerous
components, such as native
language job-skills training, English as a Second
Language (often targeted to
specific career areas), ESL GED, and Spanish GED.
Adult workplace
bilingual/ESL teachers need the same kinds of
networks, curricula,
assessments, and support systems as do K-12 bilingual
educators.

The National Association for Bilingual Education
(NABE) is supporting this important new movement and
has established a SIG on Adult Workplace Bilingual/ESL
Education.

This is also a great opportunity to draft a policy
agenda.

Please join us in Philadelphia at the NABE 2002
conference:

Date: March 22, 2002
Time: 4:00 - 5:00
Meeting rooms: Marriott Hotel Rooms 408-409

AGENDA
1. To draft policy and action agenda for the coming
year.
2. To elect officers and identify their tasks.

Please bring your ideas, and invite all your friends
interested in Adult
Workplace Bilingual/ESL Education.

Sincerely,

Margarita Calderón, Ph.D.
