VISION: For every individual to be able to read, write, understand and communicate, and to have equal opportunity and access to resources and programs, so they may empower themselves to achieve the success they want in life and learning.

TEL for Literacy Learners Program: Available to adults throughout the north. Each learner receives a computer to complete on-line assignments. The instructor is available on-line, or by phone. Learners can choose to study reading, writing, basic mathematics, or life skills.

ALAPS (Aboriginal Literacy and Parenting Skills): This is available throughout the school year in several communities. The intent of the program is to provide literacy and parenting skills to parents.  Low literacy materials based on parenting topics have been adapted to strengthen the literacy skills of the parents and to give them strategies to model good literacy practices with their children.

Plain Language Development: This is the development of plain language documents. This includes a Boat Safety Manual, and a Fire-Fighters Manual. Further development of future ocuments is ongoing.

TOWES (Testing of Workplace Essential Skills): Find out how you or your employees measure up in the workplace. This test comes with a small fee.
