Business Involvement in Youth Career Readiness

The success of the Youth Workforce Development programs is largely credited to the businesses and organizations who have volunteered time and talent, or who have sponsored goods, services and provided students with paid internships that may lead to recruitment in the future.

Volunteer Support of Youth Workforce

There are many ways to connect with GGP’s Youth Workforce Training programs and enhancing the growth and advancement of Geauga’s future workforce.

Volunteer at Career Readiness Events – GGP utilizes the assistance of area business leaders to help facilitate Career Readiness events.
