The Canadian Real Game partnership is led by the National Life/Work Centre (www.lifework.ca) and Real Game Inc. Development partners included Human Resources Development Canada (HRDC), the Canada Career Information Partnership (CCIP) of career consultants in Provincial and Territorial Departments of Education, and national professional associations. These 15-30+ hour programs have been adopted by over 10,000 schools and community agencies, in every province and territory, and are experienced by 200,000+ youth and adults each term. They are helping the next generation of Canadians learn and practice career management competencies and helping them them gain simulated work and life experiences that make their educational journey more relevant and increase their capacity to build a meaningful and satifying career - one that balances work they love in the context of a life they love.
All programs are effective across a broad range of ages, depending on participants' life experiences and stages. For example, The Play Real Game has is used effectively in primary schools, but also in juvenile justice settings with teens and young adults. The Real Game works well in middle schools, but also in youth summer camps and adult settings where work experiences have been limited, or literacy is a challenge. The Be Real Game is excellent in high schools, but also in college and university settings. The minimum grade levels and ages for each program are:
The Play Real Game (Grades 3/4 plus - Ages 8 plus)
The Make It Real Game (Grades 5/6 plus - Ages 10 plus)
The Real Game (Grades 7/8 plus - Ages 12 plus)
The Be Real Game (Grades 9/10 plus - Ages 14 plus)
The Get Real Game (Grades 11 and 12 - Ages 16-18)
Real Times, Real Life (Adults - Ages 18 plus)
