EL Coordinator Boot Camp | July 2023

EVENT DESCRIPTION:

The EL Coordinator Boot Camp is a full-day training designed to be a series of entry-level sessions for district and site-level EL Program Administrators/Directors and EL Coordinators involved in the implementation and oversight of programs for Arizona’s English learners (ELs). If you are new to the role of EL Coordinator or are looking for a refresher regarding foundational understandings, are unsure of to where to begin, or have questions about what an effective EL program looks like, then this is the training for you!

Throughout the training, there will be opportunities for participants to take part in whole-group learning from OELAS staff, as well as opportunities to engage in small-group breakouts that provide the space to have conversations as you intentionally reflect on content presented.

Topics to be addressed at the EL Coordinator Boot Camp will include but are not limited to: Arizona’s Language Development Approach (LDA); SEI Models; EL Program Compliance; a primer to the 2019 English Language Proficiency Standards (ELPS); EL Forms and Documentation; and an introduction to Integrated & Targeted English Language Development (LDA Principles 2 & 3).

Location: In-Person at the Desert Willow Conference Center  |  Phoenix Arizona

Due to the session content and the anticipated participant interaction, the sessions will not be recorded. Any tangible resources that are developed as a result of the sessions will be made available on our OELAS EL Coordinator Boot Camp webpage: www.azed.gov/oelas/boot-camp
