Addendum ,Z <br />CENTER FOR EMPLOYMENT TRAINING <br />GENERAL TRAINING NARRATNE <br />PROGRAIM Si11yiMARY <br />The CET Training Design — Comprehensive, Integrated Training Accessible to All <br />Center for Employment Training {CET) is a private nonprofit corporation which operates one of the nation's <br />largest networks of community-based training schools. CET directly manages 23 training centers in California and <br />six centers in New York, Maryland, V rgima, Illinois, Nevada and Florida It also provides technical assistance to <br />other corporations which operate CET training centers. CET employs over 350 staff and manages the program <br />from its training and administration facility in San Jose. California_ <br />Founded in 1967. CET was established to train those who are not well served by mainstream educational <br />institutions - people whose language, reading and math skills are so limited they can't get into or have dropped out <br />of public schools or who have left those schools without marketable si M& <br />In order to help these students overcome their multiple barriers, CET provides a comprehensive vocational <br />training program which integrates English language and basic skills instruction with and in the context of <br />vocational training. <br />Unlike almost all other public and private schools and training program operators, CET does not require basic <br />skalls entry prerequisites for its courses. Because each student's instructional plan is customized to correspond with <br />his or her needs and abilities. most students readily gain the skills needed to obtain a job in their chosen <br />occupational field. CST's program is a practical and effective model for training the labor force of the '90s. <br />PROGRAIV PLAN <br />The CET Training Design — Comprehensive, Integrated Training Accessible to All <br />CET designed its training program specifically to serve those who face multiple and severe barriers to gaining <br />self- sufficiency. Consequently, it offers a comprehensive set of services generally not found in a single employment <br />training program. In addition, it integrates services in such a way as to make training more efficient and effective. <br />Services include: <br />• Vocational Training <br />• Basic Skills Remediation <br />• English as a Second Language Instruction <br />• Vocational Guidance and Support Advising <br />• Pre - employment and Work �iamritY Training <br />• Support Services Referral and Advocacy <br />• Job Development <br />• Follow -up Services <br />Training Accessible to all — No Entry Prerequisites or Creaming <br />CET admits students without requiring that they meet prerequisites. It does not screen out applicants who are <br />weak in math reading or English — instead it tenches these skills along with a vocational skill. Everyone who <br />applies to CET and meets funding source guidelines can get in — even those who do not speak English or are <br />illiterate in their native language. <br />
