Welcome to another Third Thursday Together Curriculum Edition with the Work Ready Life Skills Curriculum.
Work Ready Life Skills teaches life skills people need to become qualified applicants for job openings around the country. The biggest skills gap for many first-time workers are problem-solving, collaboration, and communication.
