Pre-Employment & Life Skills Training
In this section you will find programs for pre-employment, life skills training, employment and job search..and many are a mixture of each. Pre-employment programs teach stuff like resume writing and interview skills. Life skills programs provide training on such skills as time and stress management to help you cope with looking for a job and then keeping one. Employment programs offer training on specific job skills. Job search programs give you access to computers, job market info, tips on effective job search, etc. If alcohol or drugs, mental/emotional health, physical disability, or chronic health issues are concerns or you're just not comfortable dealing with the "mainstream" population it would be worth your time and energy to check out some of the pre-employment/life skills programs, they can help remove some potential barriers to you moving forward
