Committee Reports:

Training & Development Committee

We held a training day on Friday October 24, and the response from those who came was that they all had a good time. Many thanks to Rob Shepard, Linda Irwin, and Joanne Stuart for the informative and interesting workshops that they presented. We will be holding a New to Literacy training in the future as we had very few people sign up for this training . If you have staff members who would benefit from this please contact Melanie or Wanda . We will be holding a training in the spring for the ministry that will be covering workforce. The pilot workplace projects in the field realized that literacy programs needed to do further research in this in the area of before implementing it within our programs.
