Be  a part of a National Pilot Project!

TOWES is currently looking for Pilot Project Partners to field test a new Essential Skills tool: Essential Skills Direct.

As part of a national partnership with Fanshawe College and the Canadian Virtual College Consortium, Bow Valley College has developed an online Essential Skills training tool designed to teach Essential Skills from a sector specific workplace context. Providing accessible, innovative and convenient learning options, this new tool aims to effectively remove barriers to learning and employment by teaching the skills needed for working in Canada’s highly skilled labour market. The tool will help learners develop techniques for improving Essential Skills and introduce an integrated approach to training in an online environment.

The tool will improve the Essential Skill levels of learners in the context of specific sectors including Health Care, Automotive, Oil and Gas, Aviation and Trades.

If your organization is interested in getting involved in this project please see the RFP, or contact us for more information.
