The Office of Fair Trading (OFT) are delighted to announce the release of Skilled to go – a free web-based toolkit using everyday consumer situations as contexts for learning literacy and numeracy.
Developed by the Office of Fair Trading (OFT) and LLU+ at London South Bank University, the toolkit develops consumer skills, knowledge and confidence and has been successfully piloted at further education colleges. The pilot provided very positive feedback from teachers and students and allowed us to improve Skilled to go before its launch.
The toolkit, consisting of Buying and selling, Technology and Utilities modules, has specific content for England and Wales, Scotland and Northern Ireland and is designed for adults and young adult learners at:
Access 2 and 3
Intermediate 1 and 2
Entry 3 and Levels 1 and 2
Skilled to go is an easy resource to use and its everyday contexts will help to stimulate student learning. We encourage you to visit the resource at www.oft.gov.uk/skilledtogo
