Sandy Cole and the staff of the Center for Community Career Education have
received
$154,997 from the Southeast Tennessee Workforce Investment Board and Youth
Council to implement the Out-of-School Youth Career Connections Program.
This
project will provide Work Readiness/Retention Skills Training Program to 75
out-of-school youth aged 19-21. The project will serve the counties of
Hamilton, McMinn and Meigs.

The Center for Community Career Education will provide an assessment series,
training classes and placement in real-world work situations.  These
experiences will give youth a comprehensive picture of their strengths,
skills, preferences, values, and self esteem to show how these relate to
possible career directions, as well as obstacles that may have to be overcome
in order to reach job satisfaction.

Congratulations to Ms. Cole and the staff of the Center for Community Career
Education on receiving the funding to implement this project.
