Summer Institute 2010 - Workplace Literacy & Essential Skills: What Counts? and Why?
June 28-30, 2010

The Centre for Literacy is pleased to announce this year’s topic for Summer Institute 2010 – Workplace Literacy & Essential Skills:  What Counts? and Why?  Last year we explored the issues of what works in workplace literacy and essential skills.  This year’s institute builds on and enlarges the themes and questions raised at the 2009 Summer Institute which posed the question What Works? and Why?

The three-day institute will be held in Montreal, QC, Canada on June 28-30, 2010 and will bring together policy-makers, providers and researchers from across Canada and abroad to consider issues of Workplace Literacy & Essential Skills.  Designed as a participatory learning forum, the Institute has invited Dr. Jan Eldred, Associate Director of NIACE and a principal researcher on Catching Confidence, to introduce the tool and offer recent input from the UK.  We have also invited Dr. John Benseman, principal researcher of a comprehensive three year study conducted by the Department of Labour, Government of New Zealand to discuss the final results and insights from that study.
