🌟 Skills Experience Success: Meet Marshall! 🚀 During Skills Experience, Avant Skills Academy transforms young learners into work-ready dynamos. It's our pre-apprenticeship magic, sculpting those not quite ready for the workforce into fully prepared individuals. Last night, as I reflected on our program, I couldn't help but dive into my feels, realizing the depth of my passion for this initiative. It's not just about keeping me on my toes, navigating pathways or securing work experience for our learners. It's about the profound transformation, like Marshall's. No shameless plug today—just a heartfelt success story, and this is only the beginning of the inspiring narratives we aim to share regularly. When Marshall first walked through our doors, he was a shy, reserved individual lacking in confidence. Over the course of four weeks, he's undergone a remarkable change, blossoming into a confident person who is not just work-ready but a lively character around our centre. Marshall is now actively reaching out to employers for work placements, showcasing the resilience and charisma he's discovered within himself. These success stories make me proud to work in this industry, especially at Avant. Shoutout to our tutors making a difference every day. #SkillsExperience #SuccessStory #AvantJourney #AvantAdvantage

Today is the official close of the #EuropeanYearOfSkills and for the past 12 months, I’ve been supporting the European Training Foundation (ETF) in its work to spearhead progress on 🍀 green and 🖥️ digital skills education in EU neighbouring countries. It’s been an incredible journey, and for me, the standout highlights have been:   ⭐ Collaborating with young people, experts and government officials to discuss #education, #training, #apprenticeships, #youth employment and #vocational education and training (VET). Brilliant brains, incredible expertise!   ⭐ Developing and hosting interactive #ideathons that enabled all participants to discuss, share and create a wealth of ideas and strategies for #green and #digital skills education. So much #innovation already taking place, such an inspiration!   ⭐ Experiencing first-hand what happens when we come together 🤝 – communication flows, partnerships are built, and goals are achieved!   ⭐ And last, but not least, having the opportunity to work with so many #talented, #dedicated and #motivated colleagues at the European Training Foundation who have maximised the impact of the Year of Skills initiative. Such a positive experience!   👉 Read about the ETF Year of Skills journey and look at the awesome graphic recordings! https://bit.ly/4bjXs87 #EuropeanYearOfSkills Manuela Prina Joanna Anstey Daria Santucci Fabio Nascimbeni Romain Boitard Simona Rinaldi Susanne M.

The Power of Experiential Learning "I hear and I forget, I see and I remember, I do and I understand." As the school year begins, this ancient Chinese proverb reminds me of the power of experiential learning. Simply hearing or seeing isn't enough. True understanding and growth come from rolling up our sleeves and getting involved. Experiential learning delivers three key benefits: Develop Practical Skills: In today’s competitive job market, organizations seek employees who can hit the ground running. Experiential learning provides you with the practical skills, problem-solving abilities, and adaptability needed to be a valuable contributor. Bridge Theory and Practice: Experiential learning integrates academic concepts with hands-on projects, practicums, and internships. This prepares you to tackle real-world challenges with confidence. Build Professional Networks: Through collaborations with industry professionals, experiential learning helps you build key connections. These connections can lead to job opportunities and mentorship that further enhance career prospects. Whether it's in the workplace, education, or our personal lives, prioritize direct experiences. It's through doing that we not only gain knowledge but also the confidence and skills to apply it. #PersonalDevelopment #Success #CareerDevelopment #ProfessionalDevelopment #GrowthMindset #StudentSuccess #LifeLongLearning #ExperientialLearning #LearningByDoing British Columbia Institute of Technology BCIT School of Business + Media Jeff Zabudsky, Jennifer Figner, Morgan Westcott, EdD (Candidate), Susannah Skerl, Kristine Thompson, CPA, CMA, MBA, Joanne Chng, Sarah Cohen, CPHR, Fiona Ng, CPA, Daniel Getz, Phil Ramer, Dr. Steve Yallouz ♻ Find this helpful?

As a mentor, daughter, sister, and friend to many, something I repeatedly say when I get asked for help and advice is: “When you focus on problems, you’ll have more problems 😢, but when you focus on possibilities, you’ll have more opportunities 🚪” 🗣️ This isn’t something I always say just for the sake of it, nor for optimism; Its a mindset. 📈 Its a strategic approach to professional growth, its a key element that plays amongst character development and its something I preach heavy upon. 🖼️ Its about seeing the bigger picture, its about seeing beyond the immediate hurdles and envisioning ‘what could be’ and its about tranforming challenges into stepping stones of useful lessons. ☝🏼I will keep it as real as possible with my network reading this, you have to change your mindset in order to grow before anything. Simple as that. 〽️ Start by reframing challenges as opportunities to learn something others may not. Every problem you may encounter is a chance to improve, inovate, and push the boundaries of what you previously thought was not possible. 💤 Cultivating your curiosity is something I also learned from. Curiosity drives innovation and by remaining curious, you create a fertile ground for new ideas and opportunities to sprout 🌱 🤝🏽 And lastly, network with Intent. Surround yourself with people who share the same/similar outlook, and a great example and platform for networking with intent is the Asian Arab Network, where likeminded individuals come together and create opportunities for eachother, grow together and support eachother. 💭 A Question to ask yourself: How have you turned possibilities into opportunities in your professional journey❔ #growth2024 #apprenticeships #degreeapprenticeships #grads #interns #development #positivemindset #growthmindset #AsianArabNetwork #AAN
