Essential Skills Research Project
- Established a process called job profiling,
where the literacy requirements and
complexity of individual jobs are based on the
500 point scale used by IALS
- Determined the essential skill requirements of
over 200 NOC job classifications; over 3000
interviews were conducted across Canada to
create national occupational standards
- TOWES assesses skills based on the national
standards determined by the ESRP.
