About CALS
The Computer-Assisted Literacy Solution (CALS), based on AutoSkill’s Academy of READING® and Academy of MATH® programs, was presented at Rotary International's Centennial Convention in June 2005.
Following the convention, discussions were held to determine how CALS could best be utilized by Rotary to help meet the challenge to improve world-wide literacy. It was believed that Rotary clubs, with access to computers and high speed /broadband internet connections, could help
individuals using AutoSkill programs to improve their reading and math skills.
To make CALS more accessible, Rotary International has arranged special pricing for its clubs. For US$80 any sponsored individual can have access to the Academy of READING and Academy of MATH for up to a year.
If you are interested in becoming involved or would like to learn more about CALS please email us at rotary@autoskill.com or complete this information request form.
