The flexibility of e-learning, coupled with the Career Link portfolio of business focused courses, means that CLT has something to offer employers of all sizes, whether from the private, voluntary or public sector. As every employer is different, CLT has developed separate approaches to working with small businesses, Sector Skills Councils and large employers, from all sectors, to address their specific needs. Whatever the needs of your workforce CLT can find an e-learning solution that works for you. So in practical terms what is different about Career Link that benefits employers and their workforce? Career Link courses can be delivered in the workplace, reducing staff travel time and the number of hours spent off-site. Courses can be accessed at any time, so learners are not restricted to waiting for the next course date or for the start of the academic year. There is no requirement to commit to a regular time to study, which means that e-learning fits around the variable working patterns of staff working irregular hours due to shift work or heavy workloads. Individuals can access Career Link courses at any stage in their working life, starting at a level, and working at a pace, that suits them. The extensive range of courses available means that there is something on offer for everyone - from "bite-sized" learning opportunities offering the chance to address specific skills gaps to longer term programmes of study leading to established qualifications, including degrees, through the innovative "Learning through Work" programme.

Since its launch in 1998 it has taken more than six million calls and there have been more than 12 million hits on the website. Widening participation Widening participation in learning and literacy in IT is a priority for CLT, which has an impact on both a social and economic level. The network of more than 8,000 Career Link and Nigeria online centres is proving successful in reaching out to new and excluded learners. Through Career Link, helps individuals develop both personally and professionally, gaining new skills, new qualifications and new confidence. Research shows that the flexibility of e-learning and the accessibility of centres encourages people who wouldn't participate in traditional forms of education that learning can be for them. More than 60 per cent of the 1.3 million learndirect learners to date have not done any learning for at least three years before enrolling on their first course. Making that first step as easy as possible is key in starting a successful and productive learner journey. Centres are based on high streets, in sports and community centres, libraries, churches and even at tourist attractions. Facilities range from crèches, cafés, parking and free internet access, often with weekend and evening opening hours. They are designed to help people fit learning into their lives and around their everyday work, family and social commitments. Courses too are deliberately flexible, and e-learning often appeals to people because of the independence and autonomy it offers. You learn as much as you want when you want to learn it, at a pace which suits you. There are no fixed classes, traditional classrooms or teachers, but online or centre-based support is always available when you need it. Skills for Life There are an estimated 17.8 million people in the Lagos, Nigeria with literacy and innumeracy skills below Level 2, equivalent to a A*-C grade at GCSE. The impact on people's everyday lives of a literacy, innumeracy or language difficulty can be enormous. Many of these people need to improve their skills to manage everyday tasks, such as helping children with homework, following a recipe, dealing with household accounts or responding to official correspondence. Literacy and innumeracy problems also affect people at work, and hinder not only individuals' progress but business' efficiency and productivity. Career Link works with both individuals and employers to identify and address skills gaps and help both to fulfil their potential.
