This program is designed to help students develop essential workplace skills, including attendance, interpersonal communication, customer service, following supervisor instructions, and accepting constructive feedback appropriately. These foundational skills are critical for becoming a productive and responsible member of the workforce.

Students will be placed at one of several pre-selected job sites in the Goddard/Wichita area. As part of the program, they will participate in the full interview process, including a formal job interview. While volunteering at their assigned site, students will engage in a variety of tasks tailored to their role. Please note that cell phone use is not permitted during work hours at the job site.
