Thank you for the inquiry requesting information about training on the
EFF Work Readiness Curriculum Preparing for Work.   

 

The third nationally advertised training is scheduled for August 28-29,
2007 in Nashville, Tennessee at the Martha O'Bryan Center, EFF's partner
in a work readiness initiative supported through funding from The Dollar
General Foundation.  We have plans to co-host another such event in the
early spring.

 

In addition to these "open registration" events, such as the training in
August, we are also responding to requests from organizations and
agencies who have asked for on-site training.  We have conducted the
training in Texas, Florida, and Illinois and have events scheduled in
Washington, DC, New York and New Jersey as well.  

 

For more information on EFF's Preparing for Work  curriculum and
professional development, contact Anna Bogle at abogle at utk.edu or by
calling 865-974-8426.

Please note: the following training is the same as the one held in
December and the one discussed at the Bridges to Opportunity Conference
at Laguardia Community College.  The first training filled up quickly
and several people who wanted to attend were not able to.  Here's a
second chance.

The EFF Work Readiness Curriculum aligns with the National Work
Readiness Credential (NWRC) Profile which was developed in collaboration
with the EFF Assessment Consortium and hundreds of front-line
supervisors from businesses across the country. The profile uses The EFF
Worker Role Map and integrates the Secretary's Commission on Achieving
Basic Skills (SCANS skills) with the EFF Content Standards.  Each of the
instructional modules that comprise the EFF Work Readiness Curriculum
take a blended approach, focusing on specific SCANS tasks from the
credential's profile while highlighting two or three of the EFF
Standards, reinforcing the acquisition and application of basic skills.
