Grounded & Ready - Job Readiness

Service Description

Grounded & Ready is a trauma-informed job readiness workshop that supports participants in building the emotional and practical skills needed to enter the workplace with confidence. This training focuses on emotional regulation, communication, self-awareness, workplace expectations, conflict navigation, and confidence-building. Participants learn how to manage stress, understand their triggers, and develop essential skills that support employment, training, and everyday life. This Grounded & Ready Essential Job Skills Training is developed in reflection of the Dene Laws that were developed as a Foundation of Professionalism to ensure the survival of our communities in the harsh subarctic. In a modern workplace, these laws translate directly into high-level professional competencies. "Share What You Have": (Teamwork and Collaboration). In the workplace, this is the skill of sharing knowledge, credit, and resources rather than working in a silo. "Be Respectful to Elders and Everything": (Conflict Resolution and Workplace Hierarchy). This teaches the skill of active listening and respecting the experience of those who have "walked the path" before you. "Do Not Be Lazy": (Reliability and Initiative). This is the core of work ethic. In traditional times, laziness could mean a lack of wood or food; today, it translates to punctuality and taking ownership of tasks without being asked. 3 Days 6 Hours per class can be customized to meet your organizational needs. The program is offered online and in person. Certificate of Completion: Participants receive a Certificate of Completion to recognize their commitment to building emotional regulation, confidence, and essential job readiness skills. This certificate can support resumes, job applications, training programs, volunteer opportunities, and personal development goals.
