INTRODUCTION
ob Corps is a U.S. Department of Labor, Employment and Training Administration (ETA) program. Job Corps is designed to assist young people who both need and can benefit from the wide range of services provided at a Job Corps center. Through its 118 centers, Job Corps offers academic, vocational, and life skills training through a unique approach of competency-based, individualized instruction. Services include: basic education; High School Diploma (HSD) program; General Education Development (GED); vocational skills training; advanced training; personal and career counseling; leadership training; residential living programs; healthcare; and related support services. This comprehensive combination of training and support services is designed to help each student become a responsible and productive citizen. Approximately 90 percent of the students live full-time at the Job Corps centers. The remaining students attend classes at the centers on a daily basis. Each center has classroom facilities, a cafeteria, health services, recreational facilities, and many have dormitories. Students are provided allowances for personal expenditures. Because Job Corps is a self-paced program, lengths of enrollment vary. Students may remain in the program for up to 2 years, but the average length of enrollment is approximately 7 months. An optional third year is granted for students who qualify for advanced training. Upon completion of the program, students are better prepared to obtain meaningful employment or further their education through Job Corps sponsored Advanced Career Training (ACT) or college. Career transition services are provided to all students separating from Job Corps.
