The Saskatchewan Literacy Network (SLN) is a provincial organization. Our members include: literacy practitioners, literacy learners, volunteers, community-based groups, regional colleges and SIAST campuses, schools, Aboriginal organizations, regional literacy coalitions, Libraries and government ministries.

The Saskatchewan Literacy Office has been established to develop and coordinate a new literacy strategy.  The Office will raise awareness of the importance of high-level literacy development for all Saskatchewan citizens.

The Basic Education Program Review (1999) suggested the need for change in the way  Adult Basic Education is delivered in Saskatchewan. Three primary recommendations of the review were to 1) increase Adult Basic Education’s connections to employment; 2) increase the retention and success of Aboriginal learners; and 3) develop curriculum in the Adult Basic Education Level Three (Adult 10) program.

The five required courses at the Adult 10 level are Communications, Social Sciences, Life/Work Studies, Mathematics and Science. Revised curricula are posted in various formats as well as links to online resources and supplemental documents applicable to the various curricula.
