You can also watch a series of videos that explore common workplace situations and issues.

Although these workbooks and videos were designed for newcomers, the skills, learning, and activities are applicable to everyone. For English language learners, these workbooks are Canadian Language Benchmark (CLB) 3-5 and CLB 6-8.
