The Rowan County Literacy Council will hold a four-session tutor training workshop starting on Monday, Aug. 15, in the Hurley Room of the Rowan Public Library.
The first session is from 7 until 9 p.m. and will cover the literacy program and the role of volunteer tutors in helping adults to read or learn English as a second language. At the end of this orientation, participants will have the opportunity to sign up for the next three sessions to be held on Aug. 22 and 24 from 5:30 to 9:00 p.m. and Aug. 27 from 8:30 a.m. to 1 p.m. The registration fee for these three sessions is $20 to cover the cost of materials.
In order to be certified as a tutor, participants must attend all four sessions.
Reservations for the Aug. 15 orientation may be made by calling the literacy office at 704-216-8266 or by emailing rclc@rowancountync.gov. Please make your reservation by next Wednesday.
