About Us
The goals of the Central Region GREAT Center are to:
- Establish a flexible needs-based learner-centered system of professional development for adult literacy teachers in the Central Region.
- In collaboration with adult literacy teachers, establish a menu of professional development opportunities that permit - and even encourage - teachers to develop professionally in a variety of ways.
- Investigate and pilot new technology-based methods of communication that can be used to facilitate professional development at a distance.
- Promote understanding of the Adult Literacy Teachers' Credential Model among teachers in the Central Region, and, for teachers who decide to pursue it, facilitate the process of earning the credential.
- Upon request, identify and provide professional development for directors and other administrators in areas of instructional leadership.
- And, of course, collaborate with other GREAT Centers and with Texas LEARNS regarding the delivery of statewide initiatives.
