BC TEAL is proud to present our 2025 Annual Conference: Disruptive Educational Practices: Strategies for Transformation.

Educators shine in times of change to face unexpected challenges. This is when creativity flourishes by combining proven practices with fresh and innovative ideas. These times call for transformation which can be rooted in tradition or experience, or it can arise through unexplored approaches. The synthesis of old and new ideas drives meaningful progress. Join other insightful and creative educators as we flourish within the power of our community.

Your Three Wishes Granted: 1) Multi-level, CLB-aligned materials 2) Emerging learner & literacy support 3) Occupational training

Roberta will walk attendees through the grants ( and the application process) provided through Pro Literacy, and how they give adult learning programs free access to easy to use solutions for online and in class learning.


Mobile Learning Fund Grants, which are available year round, give programs access to:


1) A results driven English learning platform used to upskill English language learners to prepare them for real world taks, increase civic engagement, fill in-demand jobs and advance in the workforce.
2) A fun and engaging app to help learners make gains in reading, English, math, work,life, health, digital and financial literacy.
3) A high-school equivalency test prep platform ( with the Canadian Adult Education Credential) that can be understood and easily utilized by learners at a foundational skills level.
4) A weekly online news source with easy-to-read global current events stories and a plethora of Canadian articles that build EAL learners reading language, and media literacy skills.


The goal is to continue building capacity among literacy and language programs by supporting the adoption of digital learning solutions, helping all types of learners who may...
•have very busy lifestyles with work/ and or parenting, etc.
•not be able to regularly attend classes.
•be on a waiting list.
•need to make faster gains.


Grants provided through the National Book Fund assist literacy, EAL and basic education programs by providing quality print materials through New Readers Press to enable a better serving of students.
