Laubach Literacy Ontario (LLO) has developed a series of resources to support LBS agencies in increasing their capacity to support apprenticeship – with the goal of creating apprenticeship-friendly LBS services. There are four modules:


This practical, field-informed module explores how Get SET service providers can support apprentices in the final stages of their journey toward certification. Recognizing that apprenticeship completion rates in Ontario remain a challenge, the module highlights why completion matters for learners, employers, and the workforce, and examines common barriers that prevent apprentices from finishing.

Participants explore completion pathways and identify where Get SET services can provide targeted, high-impact support. The module offers practical strategies to address common challenges, including reading comprehension, math gaps, study skills, test anxiety, and difficulties with multiple-choice exams. It also outlines potential accommodations and provides guidance on helping learners advocate for appropriate supports.

Grounded in the five Get SET service functions, the module helps agencies assess how apprenticeship exam preparation aligns with their mandate and community context. By the end, practitioners will have a clear framework for determining how their agency can support apprentices in achieving certification and employment success.
