In the month of August, SJN is hosting two informational presentations (as opposed to skill development ones). The first is described below and our website contains an Event Calendar with descriptions of our programs through the end of November.

Did you know that there are government sponsored programs to support job seekers? In some cases, there are even grants available for retraining. We'd like to know more about this--and who is eligible for what kind of retraining, and what are the hoops a person needs to go through to attain it.

Tues, Aug 5 - 9 AM - 11:30 AM
Meetings at Temple Chai in Phoenix

LEARN ABOUT THE RESOURCES OF WORKFORCE CONNECTION

Kathy Thiessen, Site Supervisor, Phoenix Workforce Connection, offers an overview of the Phoenix Workforce Connection One Stop Career Centers and provides information about federal grant funding through the Workforce Investment Act (WIA) to provide career development and employment search resources to job seekers and business.

Melanie Smith, Workforce Connection Career Advisor/Job Coach, will offer detail about the program services that she provides to those seeking to upgrade skills and/or connect with employment opportunities. http://www.phoenix.gov/PHXWC

We hope to see you then!
