The transfer of literacy, language and numeracy skills from learning programmes into the workplace: Literature review

Author(s): 
Marie Cameron, Rose Hipkins, Josie Lander, and Jenny Whatman

This literature review is the first stage of a two-stage research project by the New Zealand Council for Educational Research (NZCER) for the Department of Labour. The project addresses the ways employees transfer, utilise, and develop literacy, language, and numeracy (LLN) skills in the workplace; the conditions that enable this to happen; and the short- to medium-term outcomes for employees and workplaces. The second stage will consist of case studies in workplaces where workplace LLN learning programmes are being offered.
