Abstract | This guide is designed to assist professional development facilitators responsible for helping Virginia's adult literacy practitioners develop and implement the professional development plans that constitute a key component of the state's professional development system for paid and volunteer literacy training providers. The following are among the topics discussed: inquiry and action as the basis for professional development; frequently asked questions about professional development plans; taking an inquiry stance toward professional development (potential benefits; and elements of inquiry-based professional development); initiating the professional development plan process (tips for generating plans; sample plan formats; suggested resources, strategies, documentation, and evaluation activities; career development program survey; sample memo outlining professional development plan options); resources for practitioners (adult literacy practitioners as researchers; and inquiry and action for reflective practice); and supporting practitioners and sharing learning (Virginia adult education professional development components; and sample flyer for a sharing workshop). Appended are the following: professional development plan forms; professional development plan workshops; funding for professional development activities; short history of inquiry-based staff development in Virginia; annotated bibliography of 56 staff development resources available from the Virginia Adult Education and Literacy Resource Center; planning calendar; and roles and responsibilities of persons working with learning plans.
