TBQ Book

The TBQ book series have been written to assist the development of employability skills in upper primary and lower secondary school students. Our research shows that it is not what students are 'good at' but rather what they start to believe they are 'not good at' which has a major impact upon the development of their employability skills.  These beliefs are not developed in middle secondary school but much earlier.

The TBQ books are resources that will assist students learn fundamental foundation skills from a non-threatening disassociated state. Following are a range of online resources to support book 1 and book 2.  Please contact us if you have questions.
