Helping our students discover their career pathways is not all that we do. Through career coaching, we help students clarify the vision and direction they want to pursue. Our Career Navigator prepares our students to excel in skills that are essential to job search success. We help students create or updated their resumes, cover letters and polish their interview skills. WTA collaborates with community organizations to ensure our students get the job search supports they need. We have a shared goal with our students-to start a career where there is opportunity for professional growth and personal fulfillment.
