This document offers a capsule summary of basic skills training and the workplace.

The authors begin by providing an overview of the stages in establishing basic skills training in the workplace and listing the objectives at each stage. From there, they go on to list, for each stage, the objectives and main activities to be carried out; discuss the impact of basic skills training on a firm’s productivity; offer practical suggestions for integrating the assessment process into the basic skills training; and give examples of the types of materials to be used throughout the process.

The authors describe the organization of the document as a highway with various exits, which means that it can be used in a number of ways. Readers can go back and forth within the same stage; take shortcuts that meet their needs; go from one objective in one stage to an objective in another stage; or stop to review the summary table of objectives.
