WIA Grant 2009-2010 <br />OCCTAC Narrative <br />and placement site. Please see TABLE 3. The case manager will develop a schedule with each participant <br />to review their goals and progress. <br />During Phase ll, WIA participants will continue their "hands-on" job training opportunities while they <br />continue to meet with our key staff (weekly and/or monthly) to fulfill their education and career training <br />goals. Participants will be placed in one of six OCCTAC programs/job training placements at our Center <br />or community sites: 1 & 2) OCCTAC Early Start Program and/or OCCTAC Preschool Program, 3) OCCTAC <br />After-School Arts Program, 4) OCCTAC Learning Academy Program, 5) OCCTAC Media Lab and 6) <br />OCCTAC Office/reception. Please see Table 3. During this period of time, all WIA participants will be <br />employed and receive $8.00 per hour, and encouraged to work up to 10 hours per week. Participants <br />will also be expected to continue the tutoring and other support services they are receiving at the <br />OCCTAC while they engage in work experience. <br />During the last 4 months of the program, most all of the WIA participants, will begin transition out of <br />their work experience at the center, and move-onto exploring other job interviews and opportunities in <br />the community. During this last phase of the program, the case manager will work closely with our <br />community-agency partners and the SAUSD TPP job developer to help find youth a job in the <br />community. <br />TABLE 3: OCCTAC MENTORING & JOB TRAINING PROGRAMS <br />Area of Training Job Placement Educational/Training <br /> Curriculum <br />Education Tutor or <br /> Instructional Assistant Learning Academy Host Curriculum <br />Education Teaching Assistant Early Start Program First Five <br /> Preschool Program "Estrellitas" and <br /> Hampton-Brown <br />Arts Arts Teaching Assistant After-School ARTS CA Performing Arts <br /> Program Standards/Curriculum and <br /> "Hands-on" Arts Training <br />Technology Technology Assistant Technology curriculum <br />(including basic Graphic Artist Computers/ and "Hands-on" Arts and <br />Arts, Science and Media LAB Technology Training: <br />Technology) Photoshop & Illustrator <br />Office/Reception Receptionist Office "Hands on" Training and <br /> Office Assistant Basic Computer Skills <br /> Operations-Microsoft <br /> Office Word; Power Point <br />5. What services will be offered after youth exits the program and how will program keep in touch <br />with youth who have existed? OCCTAC staff will provide 12-month follow-up services for "exited" <br />participants. OCCTAC is committed to empowering transitional age youth with and without special <br />needs to reach their highest potential in life. WIA participants that exit the program will be encouraged <br />to continue to participate in the monthly Life Skills Training, monthly social/support groups with other <br />WIA participants, as well as other support services (including counseling). All key OCCTAC staff will be <br />available to support participants, if needed. <br />
