Our world is changing faster than ever before, and being able to deal with change is an important life skill. Many jobs are also changing quickly. Being able and willing to learn new ways of doing things is a skill that can help you be more successful at work. This skill is called adaptability.

Here’s what will be covered in this course:

• - Explore how we respond to change
• - Learn strategies for coping better with change
• - See how important adaptability is at work and what to do if you’re asked to make changes that go against your core value

The Adaptability course is part of the UP Skills for Work program which helps you build employability skills. When you have these skills, you have the foundations needed to work well with others—at work, at home, and in your community. That’s part of why employers are looking for people with strong employability skills! The UP Skills for Work program includes nine courses including: Motivation, Attitude, Accountability, Presentation, Teamwork, Time Management, Adaptability, Stress Management and Confidence.

This course is made possible through the generous support of Canada Life, the founding sponsor of UP Skills for Work. To learn more about the program, please visit the UP Skills for Work website.
