Resources for Learners, Teachers and Administrators
COABE provides many valuable resources to learners, teachers, and administrators as part of our benefits packet for being a COABE member. We offer professional development webinars, courses, podcasts, and more.
COABE Podcasts
Hosts Anson Green and Jeffery Abramowitz sit down with future-focused employers to discuss innovations that are advancing frontline worker talent.
These employers with their partners are challenging the status quo of education and training and delivering scalable solutions. Discussions cross the intersections of adult education, digital resiliency, training innovations, immigration law, and other topics.
Hosts Hector Martinez, Sara Haghighi, and Joyce Warrington host COABE’s EmpowerED podcast
EmpowerED is COABE’s official podcast that brings the powerful stories of adult learners to life. Hosted by former adult learners Hector Martinez, Joyce Warrington, and Sara Hagighi, the podcast features inspiring interviews with individuals who have been spotlighted in the six-time award-winning Educate & Elevate campaign. These conversations go beyond statistics to highlight the human impact of adult education—showcasing how learners overcome challenges, achieve their goals, and create brighter futures for themselves and their families.
