Non-Traditional Jobs Program

Career Link is seeking organizations to operate an employment program that helps individuals pursue careers in non-traditional occupations – fields in which one gender represents less than 25% of the workforce, based on U.S. Census Bureau data.  Selected Service Provider(s) will design and deliver a Non-Traditional Jobs program consisting of three core components: Classroom Career Readiness Training, Transition to Employment or Post-Secondary Education, and Ongoing Case Management and Support.
