This report outlines a project aimed at helping literacy networks plan their services.
The project proposal noted that there was a significant gap between the demographic and labour market data networks needed for planning and what they were actually able to obtain. A survey carried out during the project showed that networks were concerned about the value and relevance of the data on which they based their planning.
Community Literacy of Ontario (CLO) is a network of literacy organizations throughout that province. CLO developed this document in response to practitioners’ concerns about the lack of a way to clearly track and showcase their practices.
The authors have included 10 customer service quality statements. Each statement is followed by a list of best practices for achieving the goal in the statement.
The purpose of this report is to provide an environmental scan showing the state of Literacy and Essential Skills (L/ES) across the country, from the perspective of Canadian Literacy and Learning Network (CLLN) and its national network of partners, both within and outside the L/ES field.
