"The State Government will embark on a major review of the delivery of adult literacy and numeracy programs across South Australia.
Announcing this today, Further Education Minister Paul Caica says the aim of the initiative, Secret Codes, is to boost employment opportunity and workforce participation.
“We recognise that literacy and numeracy skills are fundamental building blocks for people to be able to fully participate in community life and in the workforce. And we also recognise that there are too many adults in Australia whose literacy levels are considered too low to work in a knowledge-based economy or meet the demands of everyday life*”, he says. "
