Work Experience

WORK EXPERIENCE
​
​Work Experience 12A & 12B are 4-credit courses that enable you to experience 100-120 hours of work experience all the while learning new skills in a cooperative partnership between the student, the school and the employer.
Benefits of Work Experience:
  • Make future decisions based on a realistic understanding of the workplace
  • Develop qualities and skills that are transferable to employment and career development
  • Obtain references and contacts for future employers
  • Develop self-confidence and self-awareness
  • Support the transition from school to work, Youth Work in Trades or further education
If you are interested in signing up for a work experience course or setting up a job shadow for a day or two, visit your school Career Centre and talk to your Work Experience Teacher or Career Centre Coordinator.
