Our Mission
Our mission is to help youth overcome barriers to employment by developing employability skills and using those skills to create a foundation for career success.
Nice mission but what does it mean?
We host a 16-week program that offers two assists, in the first section we focus on developing Work Place Skills and the second section of the program is a Job Placement, which means we help you find a job in Taber or even in Lethbridge.
Participants are paid for the duration of the 16-week program.
Paid to Develop Skills?
The Government of Canada provides funding to run Taber’s Youth Employment Program and Taber and District Community Adult Learning Association manages the program.
Funding includes a wage for all participants for the entire 16-week program so that you can develop the skills you need to get and keep a job.
Resources
When, possible, YEP invites speakers such as businesspeople, post-secondary researchers, and public service leaders to pass on their extensive knowledge to our participants. We also boast a quality staff and assistance from local employers.
