Psychological First Aid (PFA) is about taking care of yourself – your thoughts, feelings and emotions when you have experienced stress, crisis or trauma – and then being there for family, friends and community when they are having difficulty coping.

Prevention is key for workplace health and safety.

Protecting the safety of employees is essential to ensure they can work effectively. When workers feel confident that they have the skills and knowledge to keep themselves and others safe, they perform better, and are less likely to require absences from work due to illness.

Course facilitators will show participants the appropriate way to handle all tools.  Facilitators will elaborate on the "how to" and "what to look out for", when operating wood working tools and implements. 

Topics will range from the use of a measuring tape and the thickness of a saw blade cut, recognizing when a blade is not cutting well and the replacement process, to avoiding hazards and work place safety. 

The reasoning and laws surrounding firearms storage according to Canadian firearms regulations will be touched upon and later reviewed thoroughly as outlined in the Canadian Firearms Safety Course (CFSC).  An Inuktitut interpreter will be available at all times during the course on staff to help clarify details within the CFSC as well as aid in the sharing and skills development of all participants. 

This element of the course challenges participants by focusing on building their knowledge of trades literacy and carpentry skills.  Participants will work together to apply their understanding of written measurements (in text format) and further their knowledge by completing project questions, apply it in a real world hands on testing environment. 

Basic computer literacy skills will be developed so that participants may use the windows interface to access the online training resources that exist.  These skills will allow participants to be able to create a profile for the purpose of navigating through the online host website to complete the "Nunavut Online Hunter Education Course". The facilitator and interpreter will act as supports throughout the duration of the process and aid those who face challenges in the process. 

Canadian Firearms Safety Course (CFSC) will be delivered over the course of 4 to 5 days with the support of the local interpreter.  Allowing for extra time in class to thoroughly review and learn the course material prior to the exam.  Elements of the CFSC will be brought up in each stage of the course such as during the builds to help familiarize participants with the language and historical elements.

The culmination of all aspects of the course come together at this juncture where the participants put their work to use during a controlled target practice. The course facilitator will have each pair of participants out on location where they will measure the distances at which targets are to be placed.  All participants regardless of their success in the CFSC will get to discharge a firearm under the supervision of the facilitator.

Customer service has always been recognized as an essential part of any business or organization. In the modern competitive business world, customer service is not just about keeping some clients happy or solve some minor problems, but it is about fulfilling customers’ expectations and raising business profile.

Change can be difficult for anyone but especially when working in a organization, as there is so much change.

This course covers a number of critical guidelines in change management and what is needed to maximise the likelihood of success.

Critical conversations can be very challenging, but when they happen, it is often out of necessity. They arise out of situations where information needs to be shared about sensitive, emotional and risky topics, which is why our approach to these conversations needs to be skillful and performed with confidence.

It is very important that these conversations are effective, honest, healthy, and most importantly, respectful. When we use the proper method concerning a critical conversation, we ensure that the information can be shared effectively and ultimately benefit BOTH individuals who participate in the conversation.

Active listening is a skill, which just like many others, can be developed and mastered with practice.

The best listeners are the ones who understand the difference between hearing what someone is saying and understanding their message. The addition of active listening to your toolbox can benefit you in your personal life as well as your professional one.

Conflict in the workplace can be very complicated, however the resolution of a conflict is often very simple.

Assertiveness and effective communication are at the forefront of conflict resolution, and when mastered, can lead to win-win solutions!  When we can understand how to be assertive without being aggressive, we are able to better stand up for ourselves when faced with confrontation without compromising a working relationship.

To be a good manager, you need leadership skills, however, to be a good leader, you do not need to be a manager! Leadership skills are attributes which help us better interact with the people around us, whether or not we have any legitimate power over them.

A good leader is someone who can motivate and inspire people to ultimately work towards a common goal.

This workshop builds from its precedent and explores the ideas that we can leverage our communication skills and our influence on our co-workers without having direct power over them.

By being confident and by mastering skills such as emotional intelligence and self-awareness, we are able to maximize the cooperation of the people around us in the face of adversity or conflict.

As we already know, there are several different types of intelligence. Perhaps the most important type of intelligence that we require in a team setting or a workplace environment is emotional intelligence.

When we understand the way that a person behaves or the way that a person feels, we are able to adjust our own behaviour in order to better relate to a certain individual.

This workshop builds on its prerequisite: Emotional Intelligence 1; where we explored the topic of emotional intelligence using psychology theory and behaviour models.

This workshop will leverage the knowledge that we have learned in the earlier session and develop them into skills that we can bring to the workplace and to our personal lives. Learning about theory will not benefit us if we are unable to characterize it into our daily lives and begin to benefit from the knowledge. 

In our professional lives, we often deal with difficult behaviours, however it is our responsibility to handle these situations in the best way possible so that the parties involved can still benefit and succeed!

In order to do this, we need to approach these situations with a high level of composure, assertiveness and communication skills. When we can better understand WHY a person is behaving in a certain way, we will then better understand HOW to resolve the situation in an effective and positive manner!

Being heard and being understood are two very different things. An excellent communicator is able to leverage their skill set in order to convey their message in an effective way.

There are many interruptions and difficulties that can factor into even the simplest conversations that we have which can hinder our ability to get our message across. It is up to us as individuals to train ourselves to be better communicators both in the workplace and in our personal lives so that our words can be impactful and influential!

Influencing someone, without having direct power over them, is a very difficult ability to master, however, like every other skill, can be trained and practiced. Positive language, both vocal language and body language, carries a lot of power and influence on the people who surround us.

When leveraged correctly, these positive influencing skills are a great leadership tool which can help people cooperate, without there being some sort of conflict between co-workers.

Everyone wants to believe that their office functions like a well-oiled machine, that everything runs smoothly, and tasks are completed well and in a timely fashion. In order to achieve this, the cooperation of all of the office functions is necessary, however, a lot of the credit for how well an office functions, is really due to the administrative assistants.

Administrative assistants are often described as a master key; they are an individual who has a very diverse set of skills and has a hand in just about every function of the office. In order to be an effective administrative assistant, you will need to be excellent at being self-sufficient; being resourceful and confident enough to complete a task with little to no help.
