Employability Skills
Employability skills are generic skills that all students need to make a successful transition to the workplace. These skills complement technical workplace skills. The conference Board of Canada organizes these skills into three categories: Fundamental Skills, Personal Management Skills, and Teamwork Skills.
Fundamental Skills form the basis for further skills development. They include communication skills such as reading and understanding information, as well as listening to others and sharing information. Information management, the application or use of numbers, and problem solving are other fundamental skills.
Personal Management Skills comprise positive attitudes and behaviours that determine student potential for growth. They include demonstration of responsibility, adaptability, continuous learning, and working safely in all situations.
Teamwork Skills are required for students to contribute productively in any environment. Teamwork skills include working with others on projects and tasks.

WHAT IS FOUNDATION TRAINING?
The Trades Training BC describes it as the following "Foundation training programs provide trainees with the basic knowledge and skills needed for entry into a particular occupation. They are typically conducted in a classroom or shop setting, and do not involve any significant work-based training component. As a result, trainees do not require an employer/sponsor to participate.
Full time Foundation programs can vary from 13 weeks to 10 months in duration, Students will receive credit for the first level (some trades have 2 levels) of apprenticeship training in the specific field by the Industry Training Authority once they have successfully completed the Foundation program."

WHAT IS VOCATIONAL TRAINING?
The Trades Training BC describes it as the following "vocational training programs tend to lead to an institutional credential such as a Diploma of Trades or government credential other than the interprovincial Red-Seal. They vary in length, some may be as long as two years in duration while others may be similar to the Foundation program. They provide a blend of academic and practical skills and similar to apprenticeship programs, some require time working in industry before certification can be achieved. Each educational provider offers a range of this programming depending on their region and mandate."
