ABC Life Literacy Canada is pleased to announce the launch of an online learning portal that offers asynchronous, at-home delivery of its adult literacy programs: the ABC Skills Hub. The first course available from the ABC Skills Hub is from its workplace literacy program, UP Skills for Work.

UP Skills for Work helps adult learners develop key employability skills through free workshops and downloadable workbooks. The launch of the ABC Skills Hub means that learners will now be able to access the program directly online, either on their own or with the help of a literacy practitioner.

Courses covering various soft skills needed to gain meaningful employment will be released over the next several weeks. The first course currently available is Stress Management, to be followed by Adaptability and Teamwork. These courses are presented with the support of UP Skills for Work founding sponsor Canada Life.

In addition to offering the UP Skills for Work program, the ABC Skills Hub will also add courses covering financial literacy, essential skills and digital literacy.
