Education & Employability Program

The Youth Education & Employability Program provides employment services to youth, ages 14 - 21, who are in need of assistance in obtaining employment or further education. All services provided through this program are FREE. However, funding for post secondary education is available only to eligible youth based on assessed need.

Services are provided by Great Lakes Training and Development Corporation, which is located in the Sheboygan County Job Center. Funding for the Youth Education & Employability Program is provided through the Workforce Investment Act (WIA).

Eligibility for funding for post secondary education/training is determined by the youth's income, unless they are still residing at their parents' residence in which case the parents' income would be used. Unless, a youth has a disability in which case only their income is counted. Income eligibility is based upon the Federal Poverty Guidelines.

Job Searching

Use a variety of search strategies when looking for a job. Remember to look in your local newspaper. Often time's employers will post jobs in the paper and not post any listings online. Don't forget to talk to your friends, family, and acquaintances to see what job leads they may know of. Networking is a great way to find a job.

Feel free to call the Youth Services Career Counselor if you need any assistance with your job search. 920-208-5820
