This program is part of the impact activities of the research project of the UST Family Literacy Team titled, ‘Family literacy, indigenous learning and sustainable development: Proof of concept pilot’. The aim of the course is to help students develop an understanding of key components of family literacy and intergenerational learning. By the end of the certificate course, students are expected to produce a project proposal which they intend to implement within their institutions.
The course will run for 8 weeks in April and May 2022 and sessions will be delivered fully online. This course is intended for Adult literacy/DepEd ALS (Alternative Learning System) facilitators and program implementers, social/community workers, social ministry staff and coordinators, and faculty members/coordinators involved in service learning and community integration/extension programmes of their institutions.
