Work Experience 1 provides students with hands-on learning opportunities at a work site, where they apply skills learned throughout the program. Students practice professionalism and ethical conduct, including punctuality and adherence to assigned work schedules. Students practice interpersonal skills, learning to engage positively with coworkers and supervisors. Applying mindfulness techniques, students learn to manage emotions in various workplace contexts, perform duties both independently and collaboratively, and apply feedback to improve performance. Through personal journal reflection, students assess the suitability of the work experience for their professional goals.
