Aim of Session

-Students will learn that Employability Skills can be defined as ‘transferable skills’, that can be taken and developed from life experiences, hobbies, and job experiences.

- Students will begin to identify their own individual employability skills and reasons why and where they have demonstrated them in the past.

- Students will play an interactive game in teams, where they will act as employers looking for certain employability skills in potential employees. They will learn how to adapt under pressure in a game setting, similar to a real-life job-hunting scenario.
