Employability Skills Class

Seeking and Maintaining a job

 

Work is something we all do every day. We work, whether that be getting dressed, fixing a meal, walking the dog, or going to a formal 9-5 job.  Work is a part of our lives whether we like it or not. For some of us however, work has taken on a negative meaning. When we think of work, we think of demands, expectations, stressors, and anxiety.

​

If you have struggled with finding work, maintaining work, or managing your life around work then this one-on-one class is for you! Our employability skills class will help you make decisions that will enhance your success and enjoyment in the world of work.
