Course Synopsis: This course has been developed to provide support to students in their transition from school to life after high school. Students will continue their career development education; learn the skills of compiling and presenting portfolios for multiple uses, focusing specifically on the Graduation Portfolio requirements; and complete the preparation and post-placement requirements of the Work Experience 12 courses.
48
Rationale: While career development is central to the 2004 Graduation Program, there are no ministry-authorized courses beyond Planning 10 to ensure that the continuum of career education is part of grade 11 and 12 students’ programs. Students taking this course will develop career development competencies and acquire industry-recognized certifications to complement their graduation credentials. This course will enable schools to fulfil the ministry’s recommendation that ‘schools need to provide a formal support system for students, including staff resources, to make the portfolio process successful.’ And it will also provide a venue to offer the required in-school component of the Work Experience 12 courses and ongoing contact with the student’s supervising teacher. The course has been developed in a modular format to maximize the flexibility of timetabling.
