EU Project TRAIN – Invitation to the FINAL CONFERENCE
Professionalization of Literacy and Basic Education: European Trends
Dear Sir or Madam,
The TRAIN partnership has the pleasure of inviting you to our final
conference. We will present and discuss the results of the project to
promote literacy and basic education. The focus will be on the
development and implementation of five basic modules for literacy
teacher training. Furthermore we would like to discuss important issues
of professionalization for staff involved in literacy.
TRAIN is a partnership of six organizations: Waterford Institute of
Technology (WIT), Slovenian Institute for Adult Education (SIAE),
National Agency to Fight Illiteracy (ANLCI), Cyprus Adult Education
Association (CAEA), Swiss Federation for Adult Learning (SVEB) and
German Institute for Adult Education (DIE). The project has been
coordinated by DIE and funded by the European Commission within in the
framework of the GRUNDTVIG programme.
The conference will take place on 2nd September 2008 at the Andreas
Hermes Akademie, In der Wehrhecke 1 in Bonn, Germany. During the day
and especially in the evening there will be an opportunity for informal
exchange and networking. We are preparing for you a little surprise for
a social evening.
Please find enclosed the programme and further information. Please let
