How Will Local Literacy Help You in Your Job Search Quest?

February 26, 2026

Canada is a country built on community and shared values. From coast to coast, Canadians take pride in their traditions, from the excitement of hockey to the heartfelt reflection of Remembrance Day. There are so many things to discover about Canadians and about Calgarians! E.g., Why do we say sorry so much?

In our upcoming Local Literacy Group you'll build workplace communication skills., and it is  

a wonderful way to take part in those conversations.  

What’s in it for you?
