Work+: Working Learner Pathway

The Work+ Pathway supplements the working learner experience by providing content around a number of important career development topics. The modules are broken into three levels with each level building and expanding on the previous. The pathway supports working learners to better understand and identify the skills and competencies they are building in their student employment and how best to articulate those skills, as well as the ability to manage their career development related to their particular career interests. To make the most of the pathway, we recommend that working learners complete the modules and levels in order.
