WELCOME TO THE ADULT LITERACY ORGANISERS' ASSOCIATION WEBSITE!
The Adult Literacy Organisers’ Association represents Adult Literacy Organisers in Ireland. Adult Literacy Organisers coordinate and manage adult literacy and basic education services for Education and Training Boards (ETBs). Our work is guided by and is in line with the current SOLAS FET Strategy.
Adult Literacy Organisers play a crucial role in supporting adult learning. They work with adults in their local area, and coordinate teaching in small group sessions. They organise a range of unaccredited and accredited courses in reading, writing, maths and computers.
Adult Literacy Organisers work with teachers and tutors, and they develop new ways to help adults gain practical skills for everyday life. They believe in sharing ideas and learning from one another. This website is a place where they can share what they do, and promote good teaching practices.
We hope you find this website helpful, and that you will share your own experiences of learning with us.
