Summer Institute 2010 Workplace LES: What Counts? and Why?

June 28-30, 2010, in Montreal

The Centre for Literacy of Quebec’s next Summer Institute will continue to explore issues in workplace literacy and essential skills. Key questions will include:

  • What do we know about what employers really value?
  • What do workers need and want?
  • Do government policies around the globe take sufficient account of workers’ and employers’ priorities?
  • How can we measure and find a balance between hard and soft outcomes?
  • What weight should be given to test scores and levels?
