In 2001, the INSEE conducted a survey to better understand the homeless population. Since there was no survey frame to allow direct access to homeless persons, the survey principle involved sampling the services they received and questioning the individuals who used those services. Weighting the individual input to the survey proved difficult because a single individual could receive several services within the designated reference period. This article shows how it is possible to apply the weight sharing method to resolve this problem. In this type of survey, a single variable can produce several parameters of interest corresponding to populations varying with time. A set of weights corresponds to each definition of parameters. The article focuses, in particular, on "an average day" and "an average week" weight calculation. Information is also provided on the use data to be collected and the nonresponse adjustment.

In today's emerging knowledge societies, the capacity of labour markets, firms and individuals to adjust to change, improve productivity and capitalize on technological innovation depends in large measure on the skills of the adult population. Improving the stock of skills available to the economy through investment in adult education and workplace learning has therefore become an issue of considerable strategic importance. But how are the Canadian markets for adult education and training evolving?
This report presents, for the first time, evidence on the development of adult education and training in Canada during the last decade. Examined are not only broad trends in the demand and supply of adult education, but also the factors contributing to observed developments. Survey data collected in 1998 allow readers to gauge the current situation and make comparisons over time and across Canadian provinces. The findings indicate, first, that growth in adult education participation has slowed in recent years, and second, that there are major differences between the provinces in who gets trained, and how much.
