Workplace Activities

Practice your skills by completing Workplace Activities in reading, using documents and numeracy. Each Workplace Activity contains a realistic scenario so you can apply your skills as if you were a worker on the job. Answer Keys are provided to evaluate your progress.

Get started by choosing from either an interactive or a static, PDF-based Workplace Activity from one of the skill areas provided.

Important!

The online interactivities use only a limited number of pre-programmed responses when auto-marking responses. As a result, not all correct responses may be recognized.

If you submit a correct response and it is marked as incorrect, do not be discouraged.

A correct response that is similar to the answer the system provides but is marked incorrect only because of word choice or formatting, should still be considered correct.

For example, the answer “10” may be marked incorrect if a response is submitted as “ten”, or the answer “percentage” may be marked incorrect if a response is submitted as “percent” or “%”. In these examples, all the submitted answers mean the same thing as the pre-programmed correct response and should be considered correct.
