Aspire Generation - Skills for Every Job

Students will learn about transferable work skills, their importance in a work setting and how to develop them. Student will work in groups to research, understand and demonstrate the ‘do’s’ and ‘don’ts’ for one or more transferable skills in a short skit. Students then apply their new skills by competing in the Time-Management Game. Finally, students will consider how they can further develop transferable work skills through volunteering and community service.

Essential questions:

• What skills will I need to succeed in the world of work?
• How can I learn and develop those skills if I don’t have a job?
