Hello,

The Welcome Back Center in association with CCSF created a curriculum
called The Health Train that is very innovative in its design and is
intended to prepare adults with high intermediate levels of English to
participate in allied health jobs.

Subject: [Workplace 1579] ABE to College Transition
Curriculum,Contextualized for Health Careers

I am working with a consultant, Liz O'Connor of Strategy Matters, who in
turn is working with an adult education program in Boston which is
creating a college transitions class that will have a contextualized
curriculum focused on allied health careers.
We were wondering if any of you have, or know of, a curriculum for adult
learners (pre-college) which is contextualized to prepare them for
success in allied health certificate programs (generally).
Thank you in advance for your assistance.
