I attended this conference last year. There are a good number of sessions 
relevant to adult education, I especially benefitted from the 
pre-conference session about software to support reading instruction 
presented by Scott Marfilius.  However, the conference as a whole is very 
much a sales pitch for Don Johnston products, which I don't think is a 
terribly bad thing, but some might.  Of course, the fact that it's in San 
Francisco overrides all negative aspects....
