Career Readiness

This initiative focuses on enhancing career readiness for students through collaboration between educational institutions, government programs, and workforce development boards. Key components include the integration of various funding sources like TANF and Perkins Grants, as well as initiatives like pre-apprenticeships and work-based learning opportunities. By providing individualized career counseling, workshops, and hands-on experience such as internships and job shadowing, students are better prepared for post-secondary education and employment. This program aims to bridge the gap between education and the workforce.
