Nine individuals from Center for Social Change graduated from a six-week job development training course, designed to prepare them for real world employment. Each participant participated in Mock interviews that were held by Center for Social Change Program Administrators. There were 4 mock companies created based off their job interests and questions and scenarios presented were taken from realistic interview questions for that industry. Each participant also was supported in creating or updating their resume throughout the 6-week training program.
The graduation ceremony took place on Friday, May 9, featuring a photographer and a celebratory spread from Chick-fil-A. Guests and graduates enjoyed big, beautifully decorated cakes and delicious cookies.
Graduates donned classic caps and gowns, walking the stage while being congratulated by executive staff. Each received a special goody bag containing their certificate diploma, a printed photo, a personalized water bottle, and other thoughtful gifts. The photographer captured memorable moments throughout the festivities, including the joyful hat toss at the end.
The event was a huge success and a proud milestone for the graduates. With excitement still in the air, many are already looking forward to the next training course.
