The session will culminate with a live Q&A, and attendees are encouraged to submit questions in advance to hello@rethinkadulted.com. A video recording and summary of questions and answers will be published following the session.

A national challenge to better prepare adult learners for rewarding careers

Apprenticeships expand career opportunities, but many adult learners face barriers to accessing them. Pre-apprenticeships break down these barriers by helping adults enter, prepare for, and succeed in apprenticeships. The Rethink Adult Ed Challenge is helping providers funded by the Adult Education and Family Literacy Act (AEFLA) create innovative and high-quality pre-apprenticeship programs — in any industry, anywhere in the United States.
