How do the ESWH align with other skills frameworks?

The reality is that different programs and organizations often use different terms when referring to similar types of skills and behaviours. It is important that whatever the terminology, the focus be on the skills and behaviours and why they are important and transferable to different contexts. To make those connections clear, the ESWH of the OSP have been aligned with a number of different frameworks including the Learning Skills and Work Habits from Growing Success, the Ontario Ministry of Education’s Assessment, Evaluation and Reporting Policy, the Essential Skills of the Government of Canada, the Canadian Language Benchmarks, and the National Occupation Classification system.
