In this intensive subject, students will learn to apply theory to practice, testing professional knowledge and skills in a simulated work environment. For the duration of the subject, students will approach challenging workplace-based scenarios under the guidance of a professional facilitator, collaborating within teams to complete a structured, time-sensitive project. The subject focuses in particular on developing four skill domains: thinking skills (including research, analysis, problem solving and creativity), communication skills (including writing and presentation skills), interpersonal skills (including collaboration, leadership and service orientation), and intrapersonal skills (including self-sufficiency, planning and organizing, and learning). It offers students a safe, supportive forum to test knowledge and skills learned throughout the Employment Fundamental series, and an opportunity to critically reflect both individually and with peers on the approaches taken and their tangible outcomes. Having drawn together the theoretical strands of the course and tested them in a practical setting, students will be prepared to apply their knowledge and skills to navigating the contemporary workplace and their professional life beyond study.
Intended learning outcomes
On completion of this subject, students should be able to:
- Show skill in communicating and behaving in a professional manner in a variety of work environments, for different audiences and purposes.
- Demonstrate responsibility and autonomy in gaining and evaluating feedback to inform personal learning and development.
- Critically analyse and evaluate work contexts and task requirements, and autonomously plan, organise and adapt work accordingly.
- Exercise judgement and responsibility to transmit relevant knowledge, skills and ideas in collaborative tasks, and demonstrate adaptability to unforeseen challenges.
- Creatively apply evaluative and analytical thinking and processes to collaboratively and independently develop innovative solutions to complex problems.
