The School District of Lee County is excited to announce the launch of Upskill Village to provide adult learners with micro-credentials to help them in the workforce. Upskill Village teaches behaviors and non-technical skills that are used to interact with colleagues and clients. Students earn micro-credentials that can be placed on a resume, LinkedIn account or email signature to advertise their soft skills.
Available through the Adult and Career Education Department, Upskill Village is offering eight micro-credentials. There is no cost to attend. The soft skills being taught are:
- Oral Communication
- Empathy
- Critical Thinking
- Resilience
- Intercultural Fluency
- Collaboration
- Creative Problem Solving
- Initiative
Any Lee County resident 16 or older can register for the free micro-credential courses. Classes are on Monday evening from 6:00 to 8:00 p.m. More information and the link to register is on the District Website under Adult and Career Education.
