YES (Your Employability Skills) Program Overview
Another successful year for the YES (Your Employability Skills) program has been completed. The Northeast PA Manufacturers and Employers Council, Inc. recently produced a video that provides a general overview of the program. Since YES was first offered in 2006 with only 1 school and 14 students initially, 5,554 students have participated in the program, with 2,010 of those earning their certification. Because of YES, students are not only equipped with the skills necessary for the workplace, but also with knowledge that will help them to grow into responsible and successful adults.
