Adult Literacy and Numeracy
Clackmannanshire Training and Learning Centre supports adult learners who wish to improve their reading, writing, spelling, number and basic computer skills. This provision is free to all adults.
Staff help adults to build up more confidence in these skills at a range of levels, from the beginner reader and writer to adults who wish to improve existing skills. This includes people who intend to take qualifications or for whom a higher level of these skills is required at work.
We encourage informal learning suited to adults and have computers to support this.
Who are the adults we support?
They are:
- people who lack confidence in their writing, reading and number skills.
- people whose work now includes more writing or number work.
- people who want to take their first steps back into education but don't know where to start.
- people whose childhood education was a negative experience.
- people who want to improve their confidence in specific areas.
- people who are unemployed and want to improve their skills to help them gain employment.
