SKILLS READY PRESENTATIONS
Skills Ready Presentations explore concepts around employability. From the core attributes of attitude, skills and knowledge that comprise the Industry ASK, to the basics of workplace safety that are explored in our LearnSafe presentations - students take part in guided discussions and activities that develop these attributes and demonstrate that they are employable.
SHOWCASE EVENTS, WORKPLACE TOURS AND MORE!
Skills Ready Showcase events and Opportunity Fairs bring local employers into classrooms and provide students with the opportunity to connect with employers and share their projects. Participants discover first-hand how what they do in school bridges to the world of work.
Through our many industry partners, the Skills Ready team also facilitates a variety of workplace tours to manufacturing facilities and construction sites. These tours help students see the wide variety of careers that exist in our communities. In a number of instances, they have also lead to work experience and apprenticeship opportunities.
WORK EXPERIENCE & APPRENTICESHIP
Skills Ready partners with educators to build the bridge to industry for students in high school. From the first experience in industry through to high school apprenticeship opportunities, Skills Ready facilitates the community of industry supporters who are creating the first chance for a student to start on their trades or technology career path.
