TitleNext Skills Institute
Presented ByLos Rios Community College District WpLRC
DescriptionEmployers from high-growth sectors in Sacramento, throughout California, and across the nation have identified inter-related skills which workers must master if businesses are to increase their competitiveness and fully realize the potential of their employees. A lack of these often misnamed “soft skills,” better defined as “next generation” or “Next Skills”, often prevent employees from remaining employed, being promoted, or pursuing career paths. To address this need the Next Skills Institute was developed.

Topics covered in this course include:
1. Creativity and Innovation for Everyone
2. Valuing Diversity at Work
3. Navigating Technology @ Work (Aka “CANDO” = Computers, Applications, Networking, Devices-on-the-go, and Operating safely)
4. Effective Listening
5. Verbal Communication for Working Professionals
6. Employability Skills
7. Service Orientation
8. Interpersonal Skills for Building Teamwork
