About Workplace Literacy Programme
What is Workplace Literacy?
Workplace Literacy develops essential skills needed to cope with change and the demands of the workplace, future learning and everyday life.
Our PLUGGED IN programmes are customised and run in the workplace. Content is designed to suit business and individual needs and can include:

Benefits of a Workplace Literacy Programme include:

- increased critical thinking and decision making skills as staff are better able to plan, organise and communicate their ideas and needs
- a positive spinoff for businesses with error reduction, less reworks, decreased absenteeism, decrease in workplace accidents
- Staff contribute more to the wider community and family life
