The training of the Employment Readiness program with SmartIce started today, September 21st.
Rex Holwell Jr. is the Northern Production lead with SmartIce.
He says there will be four participants doing some orientation training such as house-keeping training and employability skills training.
One instructor came in from St. John’s and will be helping the youth in gaining their employment skills.
Holwell Jr. says they will be doing some more basic skill buildings this week such as resume and cover letters, interviewing and more basic skills on starting employment.
On the last week, Holwell Jr. will be training the youth on how to build Smart BUOYS.
