CALPRO electronic Community of Practice (e-CoP) Supporting Student Success through our Professional Learning

Welcome to CALPRO's electronic Community of Practice (e-CoP)!

The California Adult Literacy Professional Development Project (CALPRO) welcomes you to its electronic Community of Practice (e-CoP). This e-CoP is a companion site to the three Virtual Workrooms housed on the CALPRO Web site (http://calpro-online.org). 

Eligibility for E-CoP Members
CALPRO is a state Leadership Project of the California Department of Education, Adult Education Office. CALPRO services are available to all adult literacy providers in California who work in programs funded through the California Department of Education, Adult Education Office, including WIA Title II federal grants and state apportionment.

E-CoP Mission
The mission of this e-CoP is to expand the professional knowledge of adult educators through an exchange of practitioner wisdom that ultimately results in increased student learning. Whether you are engaging in e-CoP discussions, attending e-CoP Webinars, sharing your own resources or accessing new ones from the e-CoP or the companion Virtual Workrooms, CALPRO encourages  you to begin your professional learning with a thoughtful consideration of your students' current abilities, needs, and goals, and continue to keep the student's perspective in sharp focus throughout your professional learning activities. 

Features
This site features a shared calendar, discussion forums, an archive of sponsored Webinars, member profiles, a photo gallery, file storage and more.
