South Dakota's Career Learning Centers (CLCs) are non-profit educational organizations that work closely with Career Centers and the Department of Labor to provide education and training services that meet the needs of local employers.
NOTE: For a list of CLCs along with contact information, go to: http://www.state.sd.us/applications/LD01DOL/default.asp?navid=452.
The centers enroll students from a wide range of backgrounds including those who are underemployed, economically disadvantaged, welfare recipients, high school dropouts, dislocated workers and older workers. The curriculum in a career learning center is individualized, self-paced and open entry/exit.
Career specialists determine the individual client's interests, aptitudes, abilities and motivation. Then an employability plan is prepared to address that participant's education and job training needs. Participants not only learn how to look for a job, they also learn job retention skills so they know what employers expect.
Career center staff also offer counseling based on assessments to clients on such topics as budgeting, alcohol and drug abuse, personal hygiene and self-esteem. Participants who complete career center programs are ready to enter the workforce as highly motivated and productive employees.
In addition to services supported through the Workforce Investment Act (WIA), most CLCs also offer services for which they charge. These may include writing resumes, offering computer training courses, providing customer training services, or providing some type of training for businesses.
The CLCs also work with other organizations and agencies including Career Centers, Social Services, Vocational Rehabilitation, Corrections, local school districts, the state's technical institutes, higher education, court services, Green Thumb, AARP, mental health agencies and local businesses.
