Workforce Participation

Project description

Developed through the Government of Alberta’s Building Community Capacity initiative, this facilitator guide and companion Workforce Participation Workbooks 1 and 2 were created to help community organizations support newcomers and their workplaces. Community agencies are often the first point of contact for immigrants who may not have access to mainstream training programs. This project aimed to build community capacity by providing practical, easy-to-use resources that integrate language, essential skills, and workplace culture. This facilitator guide for instructors and program coordinators working with newcomers is available exclusively online, no downloads, just unlimited access through your Thinkific account. Samples of authentic workplace documents are available to download for use in training. The guide includes instructions for lessons, detailed explanations of the content topics and objectives, as well as tips, best practices, teaching techniques, and more. Published in 2017.

Testimonials

“It is helpful to take this course because it gives awareness of the rights and responsibilities of a worker. At the same time, it tells you the limitations of your role as an employee.”

ESL Learner - Devon Adult Learning Centre

“The Workforce Participation Workbooks #1 and #2 are an excellent resource for new Canadians planning to begin their first jobs - and a good review for those already working. The course addresses cultural differences, stressing that Canadian employers both want and expect their employees to ask questions and ask for clarification - until the worker perfectly understands what is required. The books teach many practical skills including: filling in forms such as log sheets; words and phrases to use when asking for clarification; methods of searching for specific information in a larger document. Having worked through the two books page by page with my ESL student, I wholeheartedly recommend the Workforce Participation Workbooks.”
