iRead4Skills - Literature review & report on literacy and other skills

This report focuses on the second work package of the iRead4Skills project relative to the overall skills and gaps survey (needs, skills and gaps). The aim of this work package is to study the link between literacy skills, on the one hand, and other skills and working life, on the other hand. To determine how the relation between literacy skills and other skills is established, we carried out a literature review. We also used the findings from a survey conducted specifically for this purpose. We surveyed people who have gone through training centres, including all types of associations that help people to improve their literacy skills, a few months after their stay in these centres. Thanks to this survey we can see what impact this reading training has had on their literacy skills, their other skills and professional situation.
