During months 3 —8, 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 goals. <br />Participants will be placed in one of six OCCTAC programs/job training placements at our Center or community <br />sites: 1 & 2) OCCTAC Early Start Program and/or OCCTAC Preschool Program, 3) OCCTAC After -School Arts <br />Program, 4) OCCTAC Learning Academy Program, 5) OCCTAC Media Lab and 6) OCCTAC Office/reception. Please <br />see Table 3. During this period of time, all WIA participants will be employed and receive $8.00 per hour, and <br />encouraged to work up to 30 hours per week. Participants will also be expected to continue the tutoring and <br />other support services they are receiving at the 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 their work <br />experience at the center, and move -on to exploring other job interviews and opportunities in the community. <br />During this last phase of the program, the case manager will work closely with our community -agency partners <br />and the SAUSD TPP job developer to help find youth a job in the community. <br />TABLE 3: OCCTAC MENTORING & JOB TRAINING PROGRAMS <br />Area of Training <br />Job <br />Placement <br />Educational/Training <br />Curriculum <br />Education <br />Tutor or <br />Learning Academy <br />Instructional Assistant <br />SAPAAL <br />Academic Curriculum/s <br />Education <br />Teaching Assistant <br />Early Start Program <br />First Five <br />Preschool Program <br />"Estrellitas" and Hampton -Brown <br />SAPAAL <br />Arts <br />Arts Teaching Assistant <br />After -School ARTS <br />CA Performing Arts <br />Program <br />Standards/Curriculum and <br />"Hands-on" Arts Training <br />Technology <br />Technology Assistant <br />Computers/ <br />Technology curriculum <br />(including basic <br />Graphic Artist <br />Media LAB/Local <br />and "Hands-on" Arts and <br />Arts, Science and <br />Downtown Santa Ana <br />Technology Training: Photoshop & <br />Technology) <br />Business Owners <br />Illustrator <br />Office/Reception <br />Customer Service <br />OCCTAC Office <br />"Hands on" Training in Basic <br />/Receptionist/ <br />Delhi Center <br />Computer Skills Microsoft Office <br />Office Assistant <br />Local Business Owners <br />Word; Excel, Power Point and <br />Operations <br />5. What services will be offered after youth exits the program and how will program keep in touch with youth <br />who have existed? <br />The OCCTAC staff will provide 12 -month follow-up services for "exited" participants. OCCTAC is committed to <br />empowering transitional age youth with and without special needs to reach their highest potential in life. WIA <br />participants that exit the program will be encouraged to continue to participate in the monthly Life Skills <br />Training, monthly social/support groups with the current participants, as well as other support services <br />(including counseling). OCCTAC staff will be available to support participants, when/if needed. <br />EXHIBIT A <br />
