The training room team has quickly found ways to keep current trainees engaged in their learning from home and continue to make progress in the program. Youth continue to complete training modules and hold virtual website and portfolio presentations. Jilimarie Mojica not only completed the training, but interviewed remotely and was hired as a new training room intern! Jilimarie is filling a new role and providing outreach to those youth who have struggled to remain engaged during our changing circumstances. She is doing an outstanding job of making contact and getting youth re-engaged in the training.
Meantime, other training room interns are assisting trainees via video chats to help them work through difficult modules and have been setting up video conferences for advanced training sessions. This week, the whole team is working on a new virtual tour of Hopeworks. Virtual tours will be available Tuesdays and Thursdays beginning next week. If you're interested in joining one, contact us at info@hopeworks.org or fill out the contact form below.
We’re super excited to have this new tool as we continue to recruit more youth to our Recode Your Future program - even NOW!
