The Background of Soft Skills Solutions©

Soft Skills Solutions© is a skills training program to help individuals learn and highlight the skills that are expected in today’s workforce.

Through an Employability Skills Training Research Project conducted in 2013/2014, best practices in soft skills training at the local, national and global levels were examined. This validated the development of an employability skills training framework – SSS© . The employers surveyed indicated:

  • Employability skills are a critical element informing hiring decisions and retention
  • The majority of employers would send their employees for “no cost employability skills training”
  • The majority of employers indicated “yes” they would be more likely to consider hiring a job candidate that has participated in an “employability skills training program’’ considering that ‘hard skills’ are met.

What makes Soft Skills Solutions© (SSS©) different?

Authentic response to employer needs

  • Training is acknowledged & valued by employers and the community
  • Broad, unbiased collaboration and consultation process
