How does the NWT Literacy Council Support Adult Literacy
in the NWT?
The NWT Literacy Council supports adult literacy by developing adult learning resources that reflect the culture and traditions of the NWT. We have developed a wide-range of learning materials for instructors and learners. You will find these resources in our Resources Section. We also provide support to adult educators and literacy providers.
Other ways that we support adult literacy:
- Develop and deliver a wide-range of workshops and training for adult literacy educators and literacy providers
- Promote literacy
- Monitor government policy and funding for adult literacy
- Conduct research in the adult literacy field
