Services overview
This section focuses on the knowledge and skills employment services staff need to work with clients and community partners.
Audiences
Courses can be used to train new workers or to update the knowledge and skills of experienced workers. Courses also can prepare staff to move from one function to another.
Content can be adapted for participants based in social service agencies, workforce development agencies and community-based organizations.
Customization
Courses that follow can be delivered as described or adjusted to meet the needs of training participants and sponsoring agencies. Customization takes into consideration:
- experience levels and program backgrounds of trainees
- training objectives
- performance gaps training should address
- whether or not training is mandated
- agency circumstances and practices related to the topic
Course topics and activities are adjusted to tailor training to the agency and audience.
If your organization has a training need not addressed on this site, The Center can develop a new course or training program.
Transfer of learning
Center training incorporates content and delivery methods that facilitate transfer of learning from the training room to the job. Center staff also can work with agencies on training overviews for supervisors and managers as well as other pre- and post-training activities that promote transfer of learning.
