workplace essential skills

Essential Skills are the basic literacy and thinking skills that help people perform tasks required by their jobs. They provide people with the ability to sue printed and written information to perform competently in a workplace and to develop knowledge and potential. Essential skills are needed in virtually every occupation. These basic skills serve as the foundation upon which more occupation specific skills are built and are often referred to as 'the Velcro to which other training sticks'
