Cost: There is no fee for this training, but your tax-deductible donation will support our tutor training program and literacy learners across Minnesota!

Presenter: Andrea Echelberger (she/her), Literacy Instructor, Robbinsdale Adult Academic Program.

Description: Trauma and chronic stress can take many forms and affect how people learn, process information, and engage with others. These experiences often show up in adult education settings in ways that can be challenging for both learners and instructors. This training will cover the impact of stress and trauma on the adult brain, explore how they may manifest in the classroom, and how they can interfere with learning and retention.

***This session was previously called Trauma-Informed Teaching Practices for Adult Learners. If you have already taken Trauma-Informed Teaching Practices for Adult Learners Presented, this is the same session. Only one will count towards your certificate.***

This is Part 1 of a two-part series entitled Creating Healing-Centered Spaces for Adult Learners. Taking both sessions is not required, nor is it essential to take Part 1 before taking Part 2.

Please note that you may be asked to participate in discussion groups during the webinar. Please plan to join us from a quiet setting where you can see the PowerPoint slides and use your audio.
