This Lifeline offers an introduction to the field of workplace literacy, language and numeracy. Providers are increasingly encouraged to target learners in the workplace; a priority for the government's Train to Gain initiative is to enable adults to achieve a first full level 2 qualification and to improve their literacy, language and numeracy skills.
This guide supports those working with employers to set up provision for learners at work and provides practical advice for those teaching in factories, offices and other non-traditional environments, perhaps for the first time. Workplace provision enables teachers to access a new group of learners who are unlikely to attend traditional classes, and provides a context for literacy, language and numeracy development. The case studies demonstrate innovative approaches to working with a range of learners, unions and employers, providing snippets of valuable insights into what works.
