Our Comprehensive Employment & Training Services
PCCS is dedicated to transforming lives through its Employment and Training Services division that launched in June 2021. We are committed to expanding our reach, enabling more individuals to access our comprehensive suite of services, including training, employment placement, and job coaching.
At PCCS, we don’t just place individuals in jobs; we equip them with the skills necessary to thrive in today’s competitive workforce through our targeted vocational training programs.
Our training initiatives are rigorous and rewarding, offering certificates of completion to participants who meet our high standards in examinations and testing. In collaboration with the California Department of Rehabilitation, we provide specialized training for disabled students, ensuring personalized attention in small classroom settings and individualized instruction.
Our training is immersive, featuring simulated work environments and interactive scenarios that prepare our students for real-world challenges, supported by reasonable accommodations to ensure their success in typical work settings.
PCCS graduates stand out in their fields, armed with training that adheres to industry standards and a deep understanding of the skills and knowledge in demand by top employers. Our curriculum is designed not just for learning but for real-world application, ensuring our graduates are not just job-ready but primed for long-term success.
Beyond training, PCCS offers extensive post-training support, including job search coaching, resume development, and a partnership with a dedicated job developer, to guide our graduates toward their career goals.
