Work Readiness Training

The CoSpire Work Readiness Training Program prepares adults with disabilities for meaningful employment through a combination of classroom instruction, hands-on experience, and community-based internships.

The program includes three core components:

• Job Readiness Training – Participants develop essential workplace skills, including job search strategies, self-advocacy, workplace communication, problem-solving, social skills, and professional behavior.

• Retail Practice – Participants gain practical experience using common workplace tools and technology, including Microsoft Office applications and point-of-sale (POS) systems.

A key component of the program is the CoSpire Café Practicum, where trainees gain valuable hands-on experience in customer service, retail operations, food service, and hospitality. This real-world training environment helps participants apply their skills while building the confidence and experience needed to succeed in the workplace.
