Scope of Project
The Resource Center will provide innovative programs that will
enhance technological skills of the community. The Resource
Center will bring together a host of resources through
partnerships with businesses and other agencies in the
community.
Resource Center Goals
Introduce the community to the world of technology
Enhance the employability skills of the community
Increase the level of technological proficiency of the community
Provide technology training to the community that would not be
available on conventional basis.
Job Training
The job-training program will be a collaboration effort of
Business' Established Agencies and Local Colleges (Florida Work
Force One, Palm beach Community College , Florida Atlantic
University, Palm Beach County Schools). The center will develop
relationships with its partners to create job training for the
community. The centers partners will give the center the ability
to offer a variety of training opportunities and allow the
center to take advantage of our partner's recourses. The Center
will work side-by-side with its partners, performing workshops
and training. The center will seek opportunities to have staff
trained and certified by its partners to perform training and
workshops that would be often times done by the partners. This
will give the center the ability to offer training on its own
schedule and increase the centers skill base. The center will
work together with its partners and local business to match the
needs of potential employers in the local area with an employee.
All job opening will be posted at the center. Those individuals
(residents/students) seeking a job will be able to see the
listings posted in the center and therefore will be able to
request additional information pertaining to the job.
Computer Tutoring
The Resources Center will provide computer training to the
community. The center will use a proven curriculum provided by
Urban Technologies. Urban Technology has provided computer base
training to C.TC for ten years. The centers staff has been
