As the COVID-19 crisis continues, you and your family’s needs are evolving. Here at CONNECT, we are dedicated to meeting the needs of our clients and the community we serve. We will be sending weekly emails with updated, revised, and newly-created resources to help get through this pandemic together.
1. PROFESSIONAL DEVELOPMENT CLASSES

We have partnered with the International Institute of New England to offer an online professional development class. This class will not focus on any one industry, but is designed to help you maximize your potential and be prepared to re-enter the workforce as the best possible candidate. Topics covered will include:

  • Completing job applications
  • Interviewing
  • Developing customer service skills
  • Information on working in the healthcare and hospitality fields
  • Basic computer practice.

These classes are free of charge and taught by highly qualified professional experts who want you to achieve your dreams. The first class starts at the end of July and will run for 4 weeks total.
