Movement for Canadian Literacy is one of 4 literacy organization partners working to “connect the dots” between funders’ accountability expectations and adult literacy programs. This two-year, OLES- funded project recently released Voices from the Field, a report compiling interviews about accountability with over 130 literacy practitioners and funders. Connecting the Dots is also sponsoring five action research projects co-sponsored by literacy programs and local funders that are exploring new approaches to accountability.
You can learn more about these innovative action research projects, read interesting interviews with practitioners and government officials, participate in an on-line discussion of accountability-related subjects, and follow the progress of this important project.

The Adult Learning Network (ALN) is pleased to announce its up-coming Lifelong Learning Forum that will be held on Sunday, November 7, 2010, at the Marriott Hotel in Ottawa. You are invited to participate in plenary sessions to discuss the strategy to implement a Canadian Lifelong Learning Network. The Forum will also host workshops dedicated to the topic of the analysis of a culture of lifelong learning. The goal of the Forum is to provide a venue where Anglophone, Francophone and Aboriginal learning communities will join to share promising practices, discuss new research and be informed of the results of UNESCO’s CONFINTEA VI. The idea of an Adult Learners Charter for Canada, as well as suggestions for activities related to Adult Learner's Week 2011 will be included.
The event will precede the Canadian Association for Prior Learning Assessment (CAPLA) Recognizing Learning conference held November 7-9, 2010 at the same location.
