Career and Work Exploration Courses

Throughout the school year, students have experienced mentorship opportunities in various employment sectors that have included health, education, technology, industrial trades, hospitality, tourism, business, and the service industry.

In preparation for their experience, students develop resumes and cover letters for personal career portfolios, refine interview skills, learn about safety in the workplace, develop job search skills and strategies, and learn valuable information about the labour market in a supportive school environment.

The objective of the course is to assist student in the development of knowledge and transitional skills to work, apprenticeship or post-secondary education.

Here is what the students and parents of LeBoldus have to say about their experiences:

"I gained so much out of this program, like how an interview works, what to say, how to act, etc. I learned what jobs interest me and what jobs don't. It just gave me a way to try a job to actually see if I would like it in the future."
"I have learned how to deal with clients and how to grow a business through good clientele relationship ... I also learned other general skills, such as computer skills, organizational skills and tidiness at the work place. ... I definitely recommend this class to other students because as a student in the class I have gained valuable business experiences while meeting new people. The class is a great way to learn because it's a "hands-on" type of class that allows for a positive learning environment. The skills and knowledge I learned will be great assistance to me whatever career I choose to follow."
"I have been exceptionally pleased with this course and its effect on my daughter. She was very proud of her work and developed increased self esteem and ability to choose future endeavors."
"My daughter's attitude towards work has changed dramatically since the start of the course. ... My daughter has indicated many positive decisions toward a future career."
