Career occupation basic skills training system

The Career Occupation Basic Skills Training System is comprised of a number of open-entry-exit programs designed to meet the pre-vocational and pre-employment needs of the participant. All of the programs are aimed at helping the participant to develop an accurate image of his/her own goals, needs, and skills relative to the world of work. Each of the training programs provides job exploration, occupational awareness, and entry-level preparation through competency building tasks. This is accomplished in a brief amount of time, in a nonthreatening, simulated work environment. At the conclusion of any of the programs, the unskilled participant will have gained much needed information as well as job-getting skills for entry-level positions.
