What is Work Experience? |
Work Experience is a short-term or part-time assignment with a public or private nonprofit agency for a trainee who needs assistance in becoming accustomed to basic work requirements. It is designed to promote the development of good work habits and basic work skills for individuals who have never worked or who have been out of the labor force for an extended period of time. Trainees are assigned to a training site based upon their skills, abilities and needs for training. Trainees are authorized to work according to the approved schedule, and are paid for authorized hours worked. |
What is Mentoring? |
Mentoring will be provided by a qualified adult, most likely a supervisor at the worksite. Mentors will be asked to complete a quarterly evaluation of progress noting the youth’s occupational skill attainment and work performance. |
