Mock Fair and Other Exciting News!

Hey Everyone!

Thank you so much for all of your input and your support.  We wouldn't have been able to do any of this without all of you standing behind us!  The mock job fair and interviews are coming up soon, and all of our participants are really excited to see how they do.

Our participants will be using the skills they gained throughout the course to attain a "job" at the mock fair.  All of the volunteers that have stayed after classes and helped tutor the students, thank you!  There has been an increased performance on their resumes and cover letters.  They all are gaining the the correct skills to be successful after incarceration.

Those of you that have been keeping up to date with our blog know that the FCI Morgantown job fair is on September 20.  Those local businesses that will be participating will also be required to complete a quick survey about each participant they interview.  This will be used to assess the effectiveness of our class and to also understand things we need to change.

We are always open to suggestions and we are still accepting businesses for the mock job fair.  If you are interested in helping and participating in the job fair please call our program director, Allen Utterback, at 304-536-227 for more details.  The more businesses we have, the more our participants can practice and become confident in their skills.
