The Adult Literacy and Life Skills (ALL) Survey: Education, Work and Literacy

This report presents an overview of New Zealanders’ skills in relation to educational and labour force characteristics and compares results from the 1996 International Adult Literacy Survey (IALS) with results from the 2006 ALL survey. It was originally published in May 2008 and revised in April 2009. Please note that the original version of this report, published in May 2008, contained errors in Figures 6.1-6.5 and the associated commentary of Chapter 6: Occupation. This current and revised version rectifies these errors. You can also download each amended section independently on this page.
