Job Opportunity Basics for Youth
0 1067The purpose of this course is to give youth ages 12-17 a hands-on experience with the finer points of finding, getting and maintaining a job. This fun and interactive workshop is led by Tukz Taaca, the Co-Owner and Lead Instructor for Safety First CPR & Safety Training.
