Funding to Train Young Workers 

Our Youth Skills Training opportunities are paid work experiences at companies to develop work-readiness skills and job specific skills to succeed. We do this through partnerships with local schools, community organizations, and employers.

Some facets of the program include:

  • Literacy skills training preparation classes including English as a Second Language (ESL) for youth who need to improve their English, reading and speaking skills, brush-up on basic education skills or prepare to take the high school equivalency examination
  • Paid work experience
  • On-the-Job training at Lehigh Valley businesses
  • Case management services providing a CareerLink® Employment and Training Specialist to guide youth through an individualized employment plan
  • Career Exploration
  • Job development and placement services
  • Follow-up and retention services
