To increase employers’ understanding of the benefits and importance of investing in workplace essential skills and language training, AWES ran an employer-awareness campaign, and provided professional development to essential skills practitioners to increase capacity for workplace essential skills training in Alberta. Research on workplace dynamics and contexts that influence training decisions was also conducted to determine how they can be leveraged to promote and build interest in training and overcome barriers.
