Adult learners are the best spokespeople for your organization. They will be able to help those intimidated to take the first step and they will help get the message of need and urgency across to your funders and donors. The Florida Literacy Coalition is hosting a training to help students become effective advocates for their program by telling their compelling stories.
Sessions include:
- Introduction to Effective Public Speaking
- Developing and Making Presentations
- Adult Learner Involvement and Leadership
- Conducting Interviews with the Media
- Adult Learner Advocacy
