Workforce Development Opportunities for ESL and HSE Students



Initiative TitleWorkforce Development Opportunities for ESL and HSE Students
Submitted in Previous Year(s)No
Critical Information, Notes, Justification, Rationale

New York Stete part-time TAP grants, short term Pell Grants and Workforce Development grants will support students in ESL and HSE programs. This support would afford students in these programs opportunities for future jobs and greater awareness of possible career paths. Attendance in ESL an HSE classes plus attendance in job training programs would help students develop marketable skills and jobs inn the workplace.

The  proposed program will provide key information about CAPE's funded  workplace programs.  This will help students in our programs consider these opportunities. The following  programs directly facilitate the development of specific job skills and employment success:

  • Pharmacy Tech'
  • Manufacturing
  • Cannabis production

We will disseminate information about these programs and facilitate their entry into these fields. We will meet with teachers and students in the classroom to present these opportunities. To further inform students we will present examples of work in these fields through in class presentations.

Consequences of this initiative not being funded

Students will continue to not have vital workplace information that will better equip them to enter the workplace in the near future. This information and involvement in these jobs/trainings will provide the basis for viable jobs leading to productive careers,
