A Message from the ALAPCAE President
Colleagues:
What an honor it is to serve as the 2022-2023 ALAPCAE President! I am looking forward to an exciting year of development and collaboration. Although the last few years have been challenging for adult educators in Alabama, we have journeyed to new heights! Adult educators have proven repeatedly how resilient they can be in the face of adversity. It is a privilege to serve next to you all in the field that we have chosen.
During the coming year, we are striving to cater to the needs of members. Upcoming plans include not only the 2023 Annual ALAPCAE conference, but also professional development opportunities, a commitment to our newsletter, development of the ALAPCAE Board of Directors handbook, continued use of the Socio conference application, and better involvement of the District Representatives.
If you are not currently a member, please consider joining this respected association of your peers. The annual membership is tax-deductible and only costs $20.00. Members of ALAPCAE have these benefits:
- Vote in elections
- Run for a position on the Board of Directors
- Receive quarterly newsletters
- Contribute to the Pete Turnham and Dr. Naomi Scales Scholarship Funds
- Attend professional development opportunities for statewide adult education faculty and staff
- Enjoy add-on memberships in COABE (Coalition on Adult Basic Education), ProLiteracy, and the National Coalition for Literacy
The 2022-2023 Board of Directors will continually rethink the efforts of this prestigious organization. We are only as strong as our members are, so please send your questions, comments, and suggestions to info@alapcae.com. Every inquiry will receive a response.
Thank you for being the best that Alabama has to offer!
