Success Stories

"I just started my class to learn how to be successful at work."

Michael

Michael will be ready to go on on interview in 6 weeks!

All he had to do was work with his VRC at VESID, his TLC at Thomas Edison High School and follow the Steps to Success to get a placement at YAI, a vocational training program.

Michael is in class to learn about the behaviors you must have to be successful at work. He attends classes at YAI 5 days a week and then will go to an internship for on the job training. A job developer at YAI will help Michael find a job when he completes his internship.
