Essential Skills

50 updated essential skills profiles are now available online. They have been synthesized into a more user-friendly version and describe how each occupation is affected by digital technology. Click here to view the list.

As part of a pilot initiative, a new design format was developed for three of the updated profiles. They are available in PDF and in print:
  • Cashiers
  • Food and Beverage Servers
  • Nurse Aides, Orderlies and Patient Service Associates

To order: visit http://www.hrsdc.gc.ca/eng/publications_resources/index.shtml, select "Order a publication from the department" and search for "Essential Skills Profiles".

Please tell us what you think about the revised profiles.
