[West Lawn, PA] – The Literacy Council of Reading-Berks announced today that Laurie Dawkins, Associate Director-Workplace Learning, has decided to retire effective June 30, 2020.
Dawkins has served in her current role since January 2010, and prior to that, served for approximately nine years as the Council’s program developer and ESL instructor, where she oversaw the development of the Council’s current workforce initiatives.
During Dawkins’ tenure as Associate Director-Workplace Learning, she played a critical role in helping the Council develop its well-known workplace literacy programs for Berks County employers. She helped the Council establish many of the partnerships it has today.
Additionally, Dawkins has served as the conference co-chair of the Pennsylvania Association of Adult and Continuing Educations for two years.
“Laurie has contributed twenty years of corporate experience to the Literacy Council, and the relationships she has helped us build have positioned the Council as a premier provider of adult education services in Berks County,” said Ryan A. Breisch, Executive Director of the Council. “I will miss working with her on a daily basis, as well as her insight on the Council’s strategic initiatives,” Breisch added.
