Description
In 2005 a comprehensive review of Alberta’s advanced education system, known as A Learning Alberta, was initiated, with the goal of articulating a new vision and policy outcomes for Alberta’s advanced education system. This report represents the work of the Foundational Learning and Diversity sub-committee. Within the larger context and framework of A Learning Alberta, the sub-committee focused on identifying priorities for community learning opportunities to better meet the learning needs of adults who are under-represented in existing formal learning opportunities, and looked specifically at adults who live with a disability, low literacy skills, low fluency in English and/or challenges of settlement in a new country.
