A high level of literacy in both print and digital media is required for negotiating most aspects of 21st century life -- succeeding in a competitive job market, supporting a family, navigating health information, and participating in civic activities. But according to a recent survey, more than 90 million adults in the United States lack the literacy skills needed to have fully productive and secure lives.

We apologize, but the LINCS Training application is temporarily not available.

If you have received an email directing you to fill out an evaluation related to a training session you have taken, we apologize for the inconvenience. 

If you wish to provide feedback, or wish to be informed when the LINCS Training application will be available once again, please send an email to info@lincs.ed.gov.

Thanks,
