This program prepares participants for long-term job success, and includes skills training in targeted career tracks such as:

Custodial

Additionally, ICD offers an After-School Work Readiness program to students who are still attending high school. With proper authorization, this service can be provided on site at select schools.

This training is well-aligned to help students earn their work based learning experiences needed for the new C-DOS Commencement Credential. Such services may be funded through ACCES-VR as well as private partnerships with community-based organizations, school districts or the Department of Education.
