Career Development

Life/Work Program

What will you do when you grow up? Are you tired of hearing that question? Will you attend university or college? Will you work in a skilled trade? Perhaps you prefer to be an entrepreneur? The Life/Work program provides the tools needed for you to learn more about the world of work, to gain employability skills and to provide opportunities for personal growth.

Each of the levels has a different focus. The program allows you to: discover your skills and strengths, learn work expectations, create a resume, practice interviews, explore careers, discuss life/work balance and experience a work placement in your chosen field. These courses will empower you to make positive choices for your future.

The completion of one of these credits affords the opportunity to receive an additional credit through students’ own part-time employment.
