Whether you are settling into a new job or have been employed for several years, the challenges for employees who use English as a second language can be somewhat difficult. To help employees develop their English language skills, employers have been helping workers become more productive and prosperous in their working environment with site-based adult literacy training.
Employers and employees both benefit from increased basic skills in the worksite.
