Work Experience

Welcome to Work Experience 12, a 4-credit course designed for a smooth transition from school to the workforce. This program focuses on documenting work hours and developing essential skills for success in the professional world. Through hands-on experiences and observation in a work setting, students will cultivate both generic and job-specific employability skills, including communication and goal-setting. The course, facilitated through Google Classroom, emphasizes the strategic application of knowledge and skill-sets and understanding safety standards in the workplace. Engage in paid or unpaid work placements, totaling a minimum of 100 hours, covering activities like standard work sites, job shadowing, career mentoring, and hands-on experiences at non-standard community sites tailored for work experience.
