This Employability Skills Toolkit has been developed as a direct response to a need identified by the Retail Automotive Industry.
The six modules address the softer skills that are required from education leavers when entering the workplace. Each lesson plan consists of four sections: module content, portfolio activity, a series of MOT questions on the content covered and finally suggestions for additional activity.
By working through the toolkit, students will:
- gain an overview of the six modules and their outcomes
- be able to self-assess and reflect on their skills and knowledge of the world of work
- understand what employers expect in terms of behaviour and conduct in the workplace
- understand who their customers are and how to build a positive relationship with them
- build on team work and effective communication
- get hints and tips on problem solving, planning and organisation
- receive guidance on applying for a job or training and how to impress during interviews
