Pinedale High School and
Skyline Academy students have an opportunity
to learn job skill training and participate
in a paid internship with local businesses this
summer.
The Ready for the Workforce Program is facilitated
by Sublette County Chamber of Commerce
and Sublette BOCES. It is designed to
provide career and workforce readiness to high
school students and connect them with someone
in the community who is in a workforce
pathway or career they may be interested in.
As part of this program, students are required
to bring their completed resume to the job fair
scheduled at Pinedale High School on Friday,
May 3. An optional resume-writing workshop
is scheduled for Tuesday, April 30, at 6:30 p.m.
at Sublette BOCES.
Sponsoring businesses will schedule interviews
with intern applicants and announce
selections after May 24. Once the job fair, interview
and selection process is complete, students
will work with their internship provider to
schedule 60 hours of on-the-job work to complete
their internship anytime between June 10
and Aug. 16.
It is the student’s responsibility to work with
their employer to work out times that work best
for all parties. At the completion of the internship
– verified by the internship provider – the
student will receive a $500 scholarship and certificate
of completion
