LLSC is proud to be a partner in an exciting new initiative!

This morning, Minister of Labour, Training and Skills Development (MLTSD) Monte McNaughton announced that funding has been approved to launch a new SkillsAdvance Ontario project. This project, lead by Carrefour Communautaire Francophone de London (CCFL) with their partners at the Licensed Child Care Network, Literacy Link South Central and the Workforce Planning and Development Board, will help prepare 130 people for exciting careers in Early Childhood Education.  

Launching in early 2021, participants in this project will have access to a free 10-week training program that includes upgrading, job preparation and work placement support. We look forward to supporting this work in the months and years ahead, and will share updates though our blog, and on social media (Twitter and Facebook).

The Skills for Success are the nine skills the Canadian government has identified everyone needs to be successful in work, learning and life. Today we're continuing our look at the Skills for Success by talking about Writing . According to the Canadian government, writing is how we share information using written words, symbols, and images. For example, we use this skill to fill out forms and applications, and write emails, reports and social media posts. Learn more about writing and the other Skills for Success here , and think about the writing you do on an average day, from grocery lists to reminders to homework. If you'd like to build your reading, writing, creativity, problem solving, and other Skills for Success, Ontario's adult literacy programs offer free, individualized training that can help.
