NAELPA Webinars

As part of the commitment to provide quality professional development opportunities for our members, NAELPA hosts three to four webinars annually on topic that are of interest to educators working with Multilingual Learners/English Learners MLs/ELs (NAELPA prefers the term Multilingual Learner (ML) in a effort to recognize fluency in more than one language as a asset but realizes that no term will be acceptable to everyone). NOTE: Access to recordings and other materials from past webinars is available to members in their ConnectSpace Membership Accounts. 

The National Association of English Learner Program Administrators also strives to host 3 to 4 webinars annually.

NAELPA Statement on Assets-Based Terminology

It is important to NAELPA to use asset-based terminology when referring to our work and the population of students we serve. We acknowledge that the current name of this organization, The National Association of English Learner Program Administrators (NAELPA), uses English Learner (EL), which is considered deficit based. With current federal legislation using English Learners (ELs) to identify this population the NAELPA board will continue with this usage for clarity purposes in the short term. However, NAELPA will take an active role in advocating for the wider use of assets-based nomenclature and helping to make it more standardized in our field and beyond.
