Smart Work Ethics

Character Development and Life Skills Training for the Workplace

Smart Work Ethics is a program developed to create an understanding of workplace ethics, sometimes referred to as soft skills.  From making a good first impression to knowing that interpersonal skills are required, students need to be aware of what their employers look for, look at, and measure when they hire and promote employees.  Students who are unaware of these standards risk losing their job and becoming part of the “revolving door of entry level employees.” 

This is not a quick fix for irritations—this creates a life long employment strategy

Employee responsibility is often the missing vital link in the working arena.  Smart Work Ethics presents the “need to know” essentials for today’s workplace, the universal standards for thriving in a work environment.  Participants will develop the skills employers want and look for in employees allowing the student to successfully move from school to work.  This series of classes will dramatically improve your students’ chance for successful employment.

Smart Work Ethics is a program that uses behavioral reinforcement to create change.  We are not just providing information.  We are changing behavior.

Students will become employees who:

• Show up every day
• Show up on time
• Use work time as work time—not personal time
• Have a positive work attitude—enhance productivity
• Get along with boss, co-workers and customers
• Work independently
• Take responsibility
• Make informed choices
• Create goals
• Communicate effectively
• Work with difficult people
• Have accurate self perception of abilities
• Manage time effectively
• Manage emotions
• Use problem solving and critical thinking
• Are dressed appropriately
• Are groomed appropriately

The 7 class topics are based on feedback from business and industry.  Our method of delivery is based on psychology, education, Generation Y, working with the less advantaged, and our background as trainers in business and industry.  Our methods include reinforcements to stimulate interest and participation.

We offer pre and post assessment tools for your grant requirements.

We offer a Train the Trainer series so your trainers can provide on-going training.
