Training stuck in neutral?

Switch gears with NO COST Workplace Essential Skills consulting.

Until June 1st, 2010 the TOWES Department at Bow Valley College is offering local area employers up to 28 days of no cost Essential Skills consulting services for their staff through the Essential Skills Workplace Services (ESWS) project funded by Human Resources and Skills Development Canada (HRSDC).

Essential Skills are the basic or foundational skills that people use at work and in daily life.  Some of the nine Essential Skills are:

• Reading text                         • Numeracy

• Using documents                 • Oral communication

Essential Skills are used in some way in every occupation. Adequate levels of Essential Skills enable workers to learn new technical skills, adapt to workplace change or new processes and lead to increased safety and productivity in the workplace.

Let the TOWES department at Bow Valley College use its expertise in Essential Skills to help your business complete a customized Essential Skills Integration through services such as awareness sessions, needs assessment and analysis, training action planning , HR or Leadership consultations and more.
