Why Real Jobs, Not Just “Training”
At The Core, learning has to pay off—literally. Too many programs give you workshops and certificates but leave you scrambling for your first gig. We do things differently:
Hands-On, Partnering with Local BusinessesYou don’t just practice in a classroom. You learn inside real, neighborhood businesses we’ve teamed up with—housekeeping crews, carpentry teams, tailoring shops, and more.
Purpose Every DayTeens wake up knowing they’ll add value before noon. Parents watch their kids step into genuine roles, building confidence one shift at a time.
Step 1: Find What Fires You Up
Interest Mapping
Teens: Are you the friend everyone asks for tech help? Love working with your hands? We start by exploring hobbies and strengths.
Parents: You’ve seen that spark when your child’s eyes light up. We match that spark to a real opportunity in one of our partner businesses.
Goal-Setting SessionTogether, you and your Core coach set milestones that directly unlock your first paychecks:
“By Week 2, I’ll nail basic tool safety.”
“By Month 1, I’ll handle three cleaning assignments without supervision.”
Step 2: Build Skills They Pay For
Technical Know-HowMaster the nuts and bolts—safe tool use, client-ready finishes, on-time service. Every skill ties to an actual need at our partner sites.
Everyday Adult SkillsShow up on time. Talk through challenges. Ask for help confidently. We weave these into each training module so you graduate fully work-ready.
Step 3: Step into Your First Role
Real Partner Businesses & ClientsYour first shift might be freshening an Airbnb, crafting a bench for a local homeowner, or pressing a jacket at a neighborhood tailor. Feedback comes fast—from supervisors who care and from real customers.
Mentorship on DemandText your coach with questions at 8 AM. Hit a snag at 2 PM? A supervisor’s on call. You’re never alone—it’s like having a pocket-sized mentor rooting for your success.
Step 4: Get Paid & Feel the Freedom
Steady Pay CyclesWe’ve lined up funding partners so your paycheck hits on schedule—no guessing, no delays.
Goal-Based BonusesExceed quality targets, keep perfect attendance, or bring in a referral? That’s extra cash straight to you.
Immediate Impact
Teens: Finally afford your own stuff—phone upgrades, a weekend trip, or saving up for next year’s gear.
Parents: Watch your teen take pride in contributing—gaining both confidence and real spending power.
The Big Win: Confidence That Sticks
Earning your own money changes everything:
Self-Worth & IndependenceYou prove to yourself you can deliver—and that carries into school, friendships, and whatever comes next.
Stronger Family BondsSeeing your teen succeed on the job brings pride and relief. They’re not just “kids” anymore—they’re contributors.
A Foundation for What’s NextCollege, an apprenticeship, launching your own side hustle—when you’ve already built a track record, doors fly open.
