About the Program

Soft-Skills is an online program for New Mexico high school juniors and seniors funded by the New Mexico Legislature. It is designed to help students develop life skills for personal success, whether in higher education or in the workplace. This program provides a comprehensive curriculum for developing strong work ethic, teamwork, written and verbal capabilities, and analytical and leadership skills. We are currently offering this program for up to 100% of enrolled juniors and seniors at each high school.

There are 18 modules, each having a specific objective. Students work their way through the lessons chronologically.

The program will give students 3 credit hours of transferable UNM credit.

We encourage all questions to be forwarded to mentor@unm.edu or softskillsUNM@gmail.com. Allow 2-3 business days for a response.
