To empower educators and program leaders with strategies, resources, and action plans to connect language learning with workforce readiness, career opportunities, and community partnerships. The conference will be structured around three learning and action strands based on the following focus topics:

  • Curriculum: Connecting classroom language learning to careers and workforce readiness
  • Pathways: Designing career-connected pathways and student recognition opportunities that demonstrate workforce readiness
  • Partnerships: Building partnerships that expand career and workforce opportunities within language programs

Each strand will begin with Learning Lab breakout sessions related to the focus topic, followed immediately by a facilitated Action Lab where participants will develop a blueprint to incorporate the focus topic information into their own language program.
