If they can do it, so can you!

The Career Center also works to match job seekers with employers, from the resume-writing process through job interviews. A brand new program, the Career Readiness Certificate, is currently being offered. This program awards a bronze, silver, or gold certificate based on WorkKeys. These certificates will become a requirement for employment at many companies in the area. Please contact the Career Center to obtain more information regarding this new program.
