The Canadian Literacy & Learning Network is hosting a webinar to present their findings from a research report on literacy and essential skills

For the first time those interested in the Field and beyond have an exhaustive document to refer to when looking to get a solid overview of Literacy and Essential Skills in Canada.

The report reviews and analyzes demographic, economic, labour market and governmental trends and issues. The findings will help stakeholder gain a better understanding of the broader economic, social and political environment relevant to labour market attachment, reducing skills shortages for economic well-being and an inclusive, prosperous Canada. The literacy and essential skills sector is set to play an important role in assuring Canada’s economic success through a skilled workforce.
