Work Experience 12

Picture
Both school-sponsored career exploration and community-based work experience are intended to help prepare students for the transition from secondary school to the world of work or further education and training. However, in work experience, the community is the classroom where students gain knowledge and experience about the workplace and are provided with a frame of reference to review or revise their career goals. Work experience provides students with an opportunity to apply classroom learning in a context outside of school and to bring back to the classroom new perspectives about their learning. Work experience also provides students with the chance to gain new skills that can be used in future work opportunities.

Design of Work Experience 12A/B 

Work Experience 12A and Work Experience 12B have Prescribed Learning Outcomes and Suggested Achievement Indicators. The learning outcomes for ministry work experience are based on four curriculum organizers: Workplace Health and Safety, Secure and Maintain Work, Workplace Application, and Education and Career Planning.

At least 100 hours of course time must consist of actual work placements. The work experience does not need to occur at just one site, but may take place at multiple sites. The remaining course hours may be devoted to in-school learning or assessment activities for the course, or further work placements. The in-school component of the course may be offered in a variety of formats, including scheduled classroom settings, seminars, drop-in sessions, electronic instruction, and one-on-one instruction.

Work Experience 12A and Work Experience 12B may be offered as part of a school’s career programs or as stand-alone courses to help students fulfill their work experience and/or community service hours required for graduation. Some of the learning outcomes for
Work Experience 12A and 12B will also help students create evidence for the community connections component of Graduation Transitions.
These courses are not intended as ‘instant credits’ for students who have a part-time job.
