Essential Workplace Skills


Essential Workplace Skills Modules

Each 3-hour workshop includes small group and individual activities, role plays, scenarios, and discussions for an interactive learning experience. Particpants leave with tools and individual action plans for immediate integration.

Open Enrollment Sessions

Typical open-enrollment sessions are three hours long. For maximum benefit, they can be taken in any order, either individually or as a series. Your employees will enjoy collaborating with participants from a wide range of industries and organizations through small group activities, role-playing scenarios, and discussions for an interactive, engaging learning experience.

Customized Trainings

We can offer your organization customized EWS training when and where you need it. The sequence of topics, length of a search session, and follow-up plans reflect employee needs and organizational priorities. Learning activities parallel those of open enrollment, except your employees will learn alongside coworkers, reinforcing internal relationships and approaches. 

Take-Away Tools

Participants leave each workshop with four simple tools to help them apply their new skills on the job and in daily life. These include:

  • self-assessment to help them understand what they know and can do related to the skill area
  • tool to help them take the specific actions required to achieve their goals
  • self-review to foster reflection and allow supervisors and mentors to track the learner's progress

Kaskaskia College can document and provide:

  • verification of workshop completion
  • a certificate recognizing individuals who take all six Essential Workplace Skills workshops at the College or in a customized setting with a Kaskaskia instructor
  • Digital badge for each workshop completed
  • Digital micro certificate for completing all six workshop modules
