2023 VALBEC Conference happening soon on 19 May

This year’s conference theme is ‘REFOCUS: Student Centred Practices’ which focuses on student need in our classrooms. The Victorian Adult Literacy and Basic Education Council (VALBEC) one day conference provides an opportunity to hear about some of the amazing programs and developments in the Victorian adult education sector.

Associate Professor Tracey Ollis from Deakin University will be the keynote speaker for the event. She has carried out extensive research exploring adult learning in formal, nonformal and informal settings. Her research aims to improve understanding of what motivates and engages adult learners and how this is influenced by contexts, such as Adult Education workplace settings and more informal Adult & Community Education (ACE) and community environments.
