Is Your Apprenticeship Glass Half Full or Half Empty?

Anne Marie Curtin • March 1, 2019

Literacy Link South Central's Community Apprenticeship Skills Support (CASS) project has come to an end. The concept mapping exercise that many of you participated in has resulted in a report highlighting the client experience as they navigate our services and systems in pursuit of an Apprenticeship. Now we have current information about local realities. As a result of our three-year project journey, we have several “lessons learned” to share with you.

If you work in London/Middlesex, Oxford or Elgin County, Literacy Link South Central invites you to be part of a conversation on Tuesday, March 26, 2019 from 12:00 PM to 2:30 PM. This event will be of special interest to organizations and programs that work with people who have Apprenticeship as a goal. Together, we will highlight what we do well and explore new ways to effectively increase the number of people who enter and succeed in Apprenticeship.

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.
