Local employer partnerships are key to the success of the Work Ethic Certificate. Work-based incentives support the growth and development of the program in schools as well as provide your business or organization with a list of potential employees who have demonstrated the soft skills you need. By partnering with Mt. Vernon Schools, we hope to increase the number of opportunities for our graduates, as well as increase the number of qualified employees. If you are interested in strengthening the pipeline of school to work, please consider how you might support the program.
