Retail Sales Associate Workbook

The Retail Sales Associate Workbook is a self-directed workbook that has been developed for individuals entering the workforce for the first time, as well as for those who have been working within the retail industry and wish to raise their levels of performance. The workbook is based on the Retail Sales Associate National Occupational Standards and is ideal for those individuals who wish to complete Retail Council of Canada's Retail Sales Associate Certification Program.
