Oh,
the weather outside is frightful
But the fire is so delightful
And since we've no place to go
Let it snow! Let it snow! Let it snow!
It doesn't show signs of stopping
And I brought some corn for popping
The lights are turned way down low
Let it snow! Let it snow! Let it snow!
Sing along now...

Results from International Adult Literacy Survey (IALS)
Introduced a new concept of literacy – continuum of skills from quite limited to very high
Literacy firmly linked to economic success and productivity
People scoring less than 3 out of 5 lacked the skills needed to transfer existing knowledge to new environments
This PowerPoint presentation presents information on the importance of essential skills, what they are, myths and future work.

Le Guide fournira aux administrateurs des sociétés sans but lucratif des orientations qui, à la fois, les informeront sur leurs droits et obligations fondamentaux en vertu de la loi et mettront B leur disposition quelques outils simples pour les aider à exercer ces droits et à s'acquitter de ces obligations.
