LINC Works integrates essential skills, entry-level certifications, and facilitated work placements into programming for newcomers to better prepare them to enter the workforce and maintain employment.
The project focuses on LINC learners at CLB levels 3 and 5, and will be applicable for a variety of platforms including rural deliveries as well as other English as a Second Language (ESL) programs for newcomers.
The LINC Works project works with stakeholders across Canada to ensure there is pan-Canadian input.
This project was funded by the Government of Canada's Adult Learning, Literacy and Essential Skills Program.
