The Provincial Government is inviting input from stakeholders and the public on improvements to adult literacy and high school equivalency programs in Newfoundland and Labrador.
Beginning today until December 11, 2023, feedback can be provided as part of a virtual consultation process at engageNL.ca. This will include an online questionnaire and the option of providing a written submission. Further engagement will be held with adult literacy program participants through coordination with program providers.
All input is welcome, especially from those who may need extra supports to obtain high school equivalency, as well as their friends, family, and supporters.
Feedback from the consultation process will inform the development of a robust response to adult literacy issues, particularly foundational literacy and high school equivalency programs.
Quote
“Adult literacy is an important component to supporting the social and economic well-being of people throughout the province. I encourage everyone to visit engageNL to participate in the consultation process to ensure that adult literacy and high school equivalency programs meet the needs of all Newfoundlanders and Labradorians.”
