Introduction
Wthn Core Currculum, the Practcal and Appled Arts (PAA) s the eghth major area oI study.
Saskatchewan ducaton, ts educatonal partners, and other stakeholders, have collaborated to
complete the PAA renewal. Some PAA currculum gudelnes have been updated; some
components have been ntegrated, adapted, or deleted; some Locally Developed Courses have
been elevated to provncal status; and some new gudelnes have been developed.
A companon Practical and Applied Arts Handbook provdes background on Core Currculum
phlosophy, perspectves, and ntatves. %he andbook artculates a renewed set oI goals Ior
PAA. It presents addtonal nIormaton about the PAA area oI study, ncludng gudelnes about
work study and related %ranston-to-Work dmensons. A PAA InIormaton Bulletn provdes
drecton Ior admnstrators and others. Lsts oI recommended resources Ior all gudelnes wll be
compled nto a PAA Bblography wth perodc updates.
ilosop and Rationale
%he %oursm, osptalty, and ntrepreneurshp (%R) currculum enables the student to
eplore entrepreneurshp as t relates to the Iood servce ndustry. %he currculum s desgned to
create an awareness oI the Iood servce ndustry and ts value to the economy. %he course allows
students to eperence components oI the Iood servce ndustry so that they may become
successIul ntrapreneurs or entrepreneurs wthn a busness. It s mportant to reale that
hosptalty means oIIerng good servce through Iood, beverage and accommodaton servces.
%he %oursm, osptalty, and ntrepreneurshp currculum Iocuses prmarly on the areas oI
Iood preparaton and servce wthn the Food and Beverage sector oI the toursm ndustry. Food
and Beverage s the largest sector oI the eght toursm (trade) sectors n the provnce. %he Food
and Beverage Industry represents the largest part oI all present toursm busness and eperts
predct Iurther growth n the Iuture.
%oursm contrbutes sgnIcantly to the provnce's economy and employment. %he ndustry
contnues to grow n Saskatchewan and provde opportuntes Ior employment and certIed
tranng. %oursm n the provnce s bult upon the unque natural envronment, rch hstory, and
the many cultures that help shape the dentty oI the Saskatchewan people.
In Saskatchewan, hosptalty has a style oI ts own. %hs has been demonstrated through events
such as the Grey Cup, Bg Valley Jamboree, Canadan Western Agrbton, and other natonal
and nternatonal events held n the provnce. Provdng qualty guest servce and hosptalty can
mean the dIIerence between success and Ialure Ior major events such as these. IIectve
communcaton sklls, the ablty to antcpate and satsIy guest needs, combned wth a hgh
standard oI proIessonal appearance and behavours, are basc sklls students wll need to succeed
n %oursm, osptalty, and ntrepreneurshp A30, B30. OIIerng these courses wll provde
relevant, practcal stuatons Ior students to develop and demonstrate these mportant sklls.

Foundational Objectives
Foundatonal objectves are the major, general gudng statements that each student s epected
to acheve Ior the modules oI the PAA currculum gudelnes conIgured nto courses.
Foundatonal objectves ndcate the most mportant knowledge, sklls, atttudes/values, and
abltes Ior a student to be able to learn n a subject. Both subject and Common ssental
Learnngs (CLs) Foundatonal Objectves to be emphased are stated n ths document. Some
oI these statements may be repeated or enhanced n dIIerent modules Ior emphass or Ior
achevng addtonal or more n-depth objectves. For %oursm, osptalty, and
ntrepreneurshp, epectatons Ior students nclude beng able to:

All oI the subject and CLs Foundatonal Objectves are stated eplctly at the begnnng oI
each module.
ourse omponents and onsiderations
%hs currculum descrbes two Practcal and Appled Arts courses whch are among the specIed
electves at the Secondary Level. %hese courses may be oIIered n a varety oI learnng
envronments that range Irom a classroom n a school to an ndustry workste. %hey provde a
balance between academc and work-based learnng allowng students to keep open optons oI
gong to a unversty, to a techncal nsttute, to a regonal college, to a tranng program or
drectly to employment. %he n-class porton provdes techncal knowledge that wll be
renIorced n the workplace.
%oursm, osptalty, and ntrepreneurshp A30, B30 are desgned to create an awareness oI the
Iood servce ndustry and develop the sprt oI adventure through an entrepreneural Iocus. %here
are two 100 hour courses descrbed n ths document -- %oursm, osptalty, and
ntrepreneurshp A30 and B30. Students enrolled n the courses wll have the opportunty to
eplore Iood-related occupatons n the hosptalty sector oI %oursm. %he courses nvolve work
study placements at some oI the provnce's hotels, restaurants, prvate clubs, and other Iacltes
oIIerng Iood servces.
In the %oursm, osptalty, and ntrepreneurshp A30 course, the student wll spend 50 hours n
the classroom learnng prncples oI Iood servce, communcaton sklls, customer relatons
sklls, and personal management sklls as they relate to ndustry standards. %he course ncludes
two ndustry certIcaton programs: $askatchewan Best and Food $afe.
In the remanng 50 hours, students complete a work study component by specal arrangement
wth the employer, student, and the teacher montor. Dependng on the desred outcome Ior the
student and avalable workstes, the student may complete the work study wthn one or two
workste placements.
In %oursm, osptalty, and ntrepreneurshp B30, students wll spend 50 hours n the
classroom Iocusng on entrepreneurshp, trends and ssues n the Iood servce ndustry,
employment, busness, and post-secondary educaton and tranng opportuntes.
As n the A30 course, Ior the remanng 50 hours, students complete a work study component to
be determned by arrangement wth the employer, student, and the teacher montor. Dependng
on the desred outcome Ior the student and avalable workstes, the student may complete the
work study wthn one or two workste placements.
ork Study Component
ProIessonals n the ndustry have had nput nto the gudelnes through ntervews and surveys
conducted durng currculum desgn. %he workplace component permts the student to apply
academc and school-based learnng to workplace settngs. %hs part oI the currculum s very
mportant to the success oI the program because oI the many beneIts to all partners.
Students are provded wth an opportunty to eperence the work study component n sutable
places wthn the communty. Stes Ior work study may nclude hotels, restaurants, Iast Iood
outlets, bakeres, senor cten care homes, and other locatons. Portons oI modules n %R
A30, B30 relatng to sklls wthn the ndustry may be delvered n the workplace settng.
Because the courses are not prerequste n nature, some schools may oIIer only one course. II
only %R B30 s oIIered, Module 6, Work Study Preparaton and Follow-up Actvtes (Iound
n %R A30) must be taught n %R B30, I the students have never partcpated n a work
study module pror to enrollng n the course. II students have completed a prevous work study
module n another course, less tme wll be spent n work study preparaton, thus allowng the
balance oI the tme Ior that module to be spent etendng the work study module.
For a copy oI the ndustry survey lsted above see Append B. %hs survey may be adapted Ior
use n the local communty. It wll assst the school n the selecton oI workplaces and n the
mplementaton oI ths currculum.

II only %R B30 s beng oIIered, students are requred to complete Modules 4 and 5 as part oI
the %R B30 credt. Module 11 should not be oIIered I ths s the case.
Time Requirements
%he %oursm, osptalty, and ntrepreneurshp A30, B30 course(s) wll demand Ileble class
schedulng. mployers may request that students eperence a Iull day oI work to allow students
the opportunty to eperence a large part oI the operaton. Students may be requested to work
varous shIts to enable them to eperence the begnnng oI the day as well as the end oI the day.
From the ndustry's pont oI vew, ths s mportant to ganng a good understandng oI how
varous aspects oI the busness operate. Many oI the busnesses surveyed n program
development preIerred ths arrangement. %he hours oI work must be clearly stated n a contract
between the student learner, the workplace employer, the teacher-supervsor-montor and the
parent or guardan pror to the student begnnng work. %hs wll ensure that there s no
msunderstandng once the student begns the work placement.
II work study placements etend beyond the school day, t may be necessary to obtan
permsson Irom the Mnster oI Saskatchewan ducaton to etend the school day or week n
order to accommodate the placement. For more nIormaton, reIer to the Practical and Applied
Arts Handbook.
Students may be placed at one or more workplaces dependng on the desred learnng outcomes.
It s mportant however, that a student eperence both the Iood preparaton and servce
components oI the busness n order to IulIl the objectves oI the course.
A mnmum oI 50 hours has been suggested Ior the work study component oI each course. Usng
ths as a gude, the number oI hours worked wthn a busness should be determned by a survey
oI the busnesses where students wll be placed. It s mportant that the partners are
encouraged/permtted to have nput nto some oI these decsons made wthn the program. In
total, through one or two placements, students wll be epected to complete 50 hours oI work
study.
Mnmum %me Requrements

O classroom componenL 30 hours
O work sLudy componenL 30 hours
%R B30 (1 credts) - 100 hours
O classroom componenL 30 hours
O work sLudy componenL 30 hours
%he decson to oIIer one or two courses n %oursm, osptalty, and ntrepreneurshp s a local
one. One course credt wll be granted Ior A30 or B30, I the student has met the mnmum
requrement oI 50 hours n class and 50 hours n the workplace. %R A30 s not a prerequste
Ior B30. owever, t s recommended that students have a good background n Food Studes
beIore selectng %R B30.
In the work study component, a student may select two work placements oI 25 hours or reman
n one workplace Ior the 50 hours. It s recommended at the completon oI the work study
component, that the teacher conclude the program wth a summary oI what students have learned
n the workplace.
Both the A30 and B30 course credts may be granted to the student who has met the mnmum
combned requrement oI 100 hours oI n class and 100 hours oI work study. It s recommended
that students recevng two course credts eperence at least two placements. %hs allows
students to eperence dIIerent types oI Iood establshments wthn the Iood ndustry and
dIIerent styles oI servce studed n the classroom component oI the course.
Creating ork Study !artnerships in THER
Creatng partnershps s mportant to the success oI ths currculum. Wthn ths currculum, there
are Iour dstnct partners, all oI whom play an mportant role. %hese partners nclude the
ndustry, the school, post-secondary nsttutons, and the student. It s mportant that nIormaton
about the currculum be gven to each oI the partners. %he partners must have the opportunty to
ask questons and respond to the nIormaton presented about the currculum. It s through ths
contact, that the currculum can be adapted to It the needs oI all oI the partners nvolved.
Personal contact s the best approach to buldng partnershps. %hs can be done by makng a
presentaton to colleagues wthn the school, to the student body, to school board members, to
parents, and to local busness. It s mportant to outlne the currculum and the beneIts and
responsbltes, to each oI the partners.

Marketng research usually provdes data about customers,
products, servces, prces, advertsng, and consumer
behavour. It s used to reIne and adapt servces and products.
It also gves some dea oI what competton ests and what
can be done to make the entrepreneural venture more
appealng or desrable than the compettor's servce or
product.
93 @o ldenLlfy Lhe purpose and

markeLlng research lncludlng
prlmary and secondary
research (CCM)

What s !rimary Research? Prmary research s completed
wth the drect nvolvement oI the partcpants. It may be
reIerred to as "Irst hand" research. Students nvolved n
prmary research may observe, eperment, ntervew, or use
questonnares to obtan desred nIormaton. Prmary research
may also use telephone surveys, personal ntervews, or mal-
out surveys.
Secondary Research nvolves collectng second hand data.
Second hand data reIers to data that may have been collected
by another person/agency and may or may not be drectly
related to the proposed entrepreneural opportunty and
dea(s).
Secondary research can take many Iorms. %rends and
predctons may be researched and plotted graphcally. %he
school or communty lbrary may be used to obtan data. %he
local marketplace may be analyed to determne the
nIormaton requred. Journals, newspapers, the yellow pages
n a telephone drectory, government publcatons, trade
journals, market nIormaton Irom busness, nIormaton Irom
Statstcs Canada, and varous databases may all be utled n
secondary research.
%he collecton oI nIormaton may Iollow a procedure. %he
objectves/goals Ior collectng the nIormaton must be
determned, the sources oI nIormaton must be dentIed, the
data must be collected and analyed, and the results must be
appled to the venture.
