Welcome to the Power Skills Course, developed by High Rocks Educational Corporation and the WV Jobs Network. Thank you for helping to pilot this course and for your integral role in testing and providing feedback on this new product! During this course, High Rocks aims to create a guided learning environment where you can learn and practice the essential leadership and collaboration skills that employers want. If you have completed the Power Skills Course 1, then you are likely familiar with what power skills are and are on your way to mastering initiative, time management & prioritization, adaptability & flexibility, focus & productivity, and workplace communication. This pilot course will cover the next set of five power skills:
- Customer Focus,
- Project Management,
- Critical Thinking & Problem Solving,
- Teamwork,
- and Leadership.
People who exhibit power skills are innovative, team-oriented individuals who excel in their workplaces and their lives as community leaders, entrepreneurs, and valuable members of the workforce. In this course, High Rocks will provide the curriculum structure, and new online modules will be added below throughout the course's duration. These modules will include the materials and workbook questions to help you build and demonstrate mastery in each skill. You will also meet regularly (about once a week) with other cohort members to discuss each skill as a group.
