A few words from our learners
“This training has built my self-confidence, giving me a better understanding into the way I was feeling. It has opened doors for me by having guest speakers with a lot of information… sources that I would not have been aware of if I hadn’t taken this course.”
– Elizabeth Gagnon
“This training was not something planned for. I’ve been job searching in what I thought was my field (office) and I discovered certain strengths that I may have overlooked. I understand where I am going to put my efforts and I still have a way to go but, I have Tri-County Literacy Council’s support. Thanks.”
– Sharron Greffe
