Colleagues,
 
Next week, Monday July 24 - Friday July 28, we are privileged to 
have ,  as a guest on the Workplace Literacy Discussion List ,  Alison 
Campbell of the Conference Board of Canada. Many of you already know of 
her work, but for those of you who don't, she has 3 websites that I 
consider sister sites of the Workforce Education site. Where our 
Workforce site is geared more toward adult education instructors with a 
workforce focus, her sites are geared more toward 
business and industry employers who want and/or need to upgrade their 
workers' literacy skills. The Conference Board is also responsible 
for quite a lot of good research which Alison has been a part of.

Bio
Alison Campbell      
Alison Campbell is a Senior Research Associate with the Education and 
Learning practice at The Conference Board of Canada. She acts as lead 
researcher, author and web site manager on various research projects in 
the area of workplace education and learning. This year, Alison is also 
managing the Conference Board’s International Workplace Education and 
Learning Conference: Sharing Global Solutions (Toronto, December 5-6, 
2006).
 
In 2005, Alison authored Profiting from Literacy: Creating a 
Sustainable Workplace Literacy Program and co-authored Literacy, Life 
and Employment: An Analysis of Canadian International Adult Literacy 
Survey (IALS) Microdata. In 2003, Alison authored Strength from Within: 
Overcoming the Barriers to Workplace Literacy Development as part of a 
national research study on the challenges employers face in designing 
and implementing workplace literacy and basic skills programs. In 2002, 
she co-managed a national study in the U.S. on the impacts of joint 
labor-management education programs. She co-authored the final report: 
Success by Design: What Works in Workforce Development. Alison 
currently manages a pilot project on the benefits of a national credit 
review service to improve credentialing opportunities for workplace 
education.
 
Her work on workplace literacy and basic skills development extends 
beyond Canada to the United States. Alison manages and makes updates to 
www.work-basedlearning.org, www.scorecardforskills.com and 
www.workplacebasicskills.com – a suite of web sites funded by the U.S. 
Department of Education that act as free resources to American 
employers and their partners who wish to improve employees’ skills.

As you can tell from her bio, Alison has expertise in many areas of 
workplace literacy.  Attached to this message is a complete listing of 
her publications and presentations, which are available for free 
download on the Conference Board site.  You must, however, register 
with the site to access them. (Sign in at 
http://www.conferenceboard.ca/boardwiseii/Signin.asp and when you have 
the option, browse documents by "author" choosing "Campbell, Alison.")  
Access to the web sites does not require registration, and they are 
linked in her bio above. Alison is willing to discuss with us any of 
the areas of workplace literacy on her web sites or in her 
publications. It should be a wide-ranging discussion!  I hope you will 
be able to participate!
