5 GAP Career Exploration

The K-12 aim for Career Education is to enable ALL Saskatchewan students to develop essential skills and career management competencies to assist them in achieving their potential as they construct their personal life and work career.” (Career Education Saskatchewan Curriculum, Ministry of Education). 

A holistic view of the term ‘career’ involves taking into consideration various aspects of one’s life such as identity, values, interests, skills, knowledge, goals, and experiences while also acknowledging the importance of areas such as wellbeing, sense of purpose, etc. which continually evolve as a person grows. 

This is a collection of resources to support exploring career opportunities. Career Exploration can be integrated into various subjects and activities across the curriculum. The goal of infused career exploration is to provide students with the knowledge and skills they need to better understand themselves and make informed decisions about their preferred futures.

Our approach to civic education is about providing opportunities for students to experience their democracy first-hand rather than by reading about it in a textbook. By reaching students throughout their school career, during and between election periods, we hope to prepare them to be responsible and informed citizens.

CIVIX programming focuses on the themes of elections, government budgets, elected representatives and digital media literacy. Programs available include:

(1) Student Vote - an election enables teachers to bring democracy alive in the classroom

(2) Student Budget Consultation - combines civic education and financial literacy

(3) Rep Day - connects students with their elected representatives for a virtual or in-person meeting

(4) CTRL-F - a module providing quick strategies students can use to investigate and evaluate information

(5) PoliTalks - supports educators in bringing political discussions to the classroom - Materials are free with
registration, and programming is designed for grades 5-12

(6) Democracy Bootcamp - professional development conference for teachers designed to improve their
democratic engagement and delivery of CIVIX programming
