Help develop microcredentials that support newcomer success in Canadian workplaces.
Join our brand-new working group! We are looking for college and institute experts to develop, implement, and deliver three new microcredentials supporting newcomers. The microcredentials will focus on Communications, Collaboration, and Adaptability, three of the skills identified by Government of Canada’s Skills for Success framework.
This working group is part of Skills Enhancement for Newcomers, a two-year national initiative that will help newcomers develop the soft skills unique to Canadian workplaces, enhancing their employment profiles.
Deadline: September 30, 2022
NOTE: Your application must be submitted using the form below and signed by the appropriate signing authority in your institution.
Skills Enhancement for Newcomers is funded by the Government of Canada’s (ESDC) Adult Learning, Literacy and Essential Skills program, a framework developed by Employment Skills and Development Canada that identifies nine soft skills needed to participate and thrive in learning, work, and life.
