Authors: Canadian Council on Learning (CCL)
This annual survey provides a look at Canadians’ opinions, beliefs and experiences with learning across the lifespan. The 2008 edition covers four learning domains: early childhood learning; structured learning at the elementary, secondary and post-secondary levels; work-related adult learning; and health-related learning.
Within each of the four domains, questions were designed to elicit information on a variety of topics, including child-care arrangements; access to post-secondary education; participation in work-related training; and sources of health-care information.
The survey was designed by the Canadian Council on Learning (CCL) in consultation with Statistics Canada, which administered the survey on behalf of CCL. A total of 5,488 Canadians aged 18 to 74 were surveyed by Statistics Canada. All respondents had previously participated in Statistics Canada’s Labour Force Survey. Canadians living in institutions, on reserves, or in the northern territories were not included in the sample.

The Ontario Ministry of Training, Colleges and Universities introduced the concept of a Continuous Improvement Performance Management System (CIPMS) to Ontario’s Literacy and Basic Skills adult literacy delivery agencies in 2001. CIPMS is designed to create a cohesive set of policies and improved processes throughout the system so that programs can better work together to address client needs. This manual is designed to provide an overview of what CIPMS is, how it can be an effective process, how it is being used elsewhere, and how the Ministry envisions it being used in Literacy and Basic Skills agencies. It also includes sample tools and resources that can be used in your agency.
This manual includes five sections:
1 - Introduction
2 - CIPMS in Literacy and Basic Skills
3 - Using CIPMS
4 - Agency assessment
5 - Resources and appendices
