Work readiness · Role-play · 35 min
The first two weeks
Asking for help without looking lost, taking a correction, and finding out what 'done' means here. The skills that decide whether a first job lasts.
Target level: Proficient — Has functional knowledge of the skill and can apply it properly in specific on-the-job settings.
Why this design
Play the interaction live with a partner, then swap and run it again. Interaction-heavy skills — customer service, escalation, difficult news, handoffs.
What this evidences
- communication×1 at Proficient
- mindfulness×0.6 at Proficient

Session plan
- 5 minThe sceneWhere this shows up: repair shops and customer sites, working with supervisors, customers, other technicians.

- 10 minRun itPairs. One plays the supervisors, one plays the Ambulance Drivers and Attendants, Except Emergency Medical Technicians. Run the scene for four minutes, then swap. The observer scores against the criteria before anyone discusses it.
- Tools in play: Spreadsheet software, Office suite software, Data base user interface and query software.
- 10 minObserver scores itScored live against the four levels. The scorer marks what they saw, not what they assume the learner could do on a better day. Proficient is the target for this point in the program: Has functional knowledge of the skill and can apply it properly in specific on-the-job settings.
- 10 minSwap and re-runClose the loop: what changed between the first attempt and the last, and what would have to be true for communication to hold up on a bad day.
