Design thinking to develop the First Curriculum
Design thinking for Schools
Communicating skills
Markets are relationships, and so is the labor market: Communicating Skills is a training project designed for high school seniors.
The training program provides all the tools for a comprehensive understanding of the current job market: interconnected and where technical skills and ‘soft skills’ together contribute to creating the profile of the (future) ideal candidate.
The goal of Communicating Skills is to equip students with the skills to effectively communicate their own competencies, using highly innovative methods and tools: design skills, social media marketing, personal branding.
Need
Providing final-year students with all the tools to compile their own CV, apply for a job position, and successfully undergo a job interview.
Approach
The project unfolds through interactive and instructional modules, alternating theoretical lessons with practical exercises. Students learn the use of tools they can immediately start applying.
The main topics covered include:
- The job market in 5 to 10 years
- Diverse job environments: large corporations, small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs), freelancing, startups
- Designing one’s own CV
- Job interviews: effectively communicating one’s skills
Tools
- Design Thinking: We apply design thinking to assist students in ‘prototyping’ and ‘testing’ their own curriculum.
- Business Game: We simulate the job application and selection process, leading up to the job interview.
Project Partners
The project is partnered with Fruitecom, a communication agency specialized in the food industry.
