Basic life decisions impossible without literacy

Friday, December 4th, 2009

Adult basic Education and training initiatives are at the core of providing South African’s with the skills necessary to cope with modern life. As the country becomes more and more urbanized new skills are required both at home and in the business world. Basic literacy and numeracy skills are indispensable when confronted with the complications of day to day living. Without these skills simple tasks like opening a bank account or purchasing a cell phone can be next to impossible, thus dooming the illiterate to a life of manual labour at best, complete marginalisation at worse, conditions that lead to a high crime rate and social problems.

 

Basic skills needed for a fulfilling life

Friday, December 4th, 2009

Most Adult Basic Education and Training efforts are focused on providing employees for basic English literacy and numeracy skills in order to make up for the deficits in these areas which are a legacy of the Apartheid educational system. Without these skills workers cannot be expected to perform optimally and provide the business with the best return on the investment in their training. Therefore ABET programs provide the foundation on which further learning can be based. ABET also equips the worker with the skills required for day to day living, such as opening a bank account or managing their finances. ABET provides skills for a happy and motivated workforce.
