Hi, my name is Lois
I have created this blog as part of the Provincial Instructor Diploma Program I am taking through Vancouver Community College. I currently work as a Provincial Trainer for a Crown corporation in British Columbia, Canada. As a Registered Social Worker, I have spent most of my career working with individuals with disabilities and their families. Over the past 15 years I have worked in several related areas including Health, employment, foster parent support, adult service provider support, generalist social work, and planning support for individuals and families. Prior to becoming a social worker, I was a music teacher for both children and adults, and a tutor for Adult Basic Education.
I have worked as a part time trainer with my organization since 2009, and as a Provincial Trainer since July 2013. I provide training for staff in various roles across our organization. This requires a broad knowledge base and a great deal of flexibility around adult learning styles. My goal for this blog is to include a variety of information about adult education, as well as ideas about how we, as adult educators can encourage people to embrace life long learning.
