During the final weeks of the WAM Life Skills/Vocational Program each trainee is placed at a local business as a volunteer for two weeks. This On the Job Training (OJT) can be a life changing experience, as many employers will offer employment to the trainee upon graduation from WAM. This has happened many times over the years proving that education is a key element to success!
Here are a few thoughts from this years employers who had WAM trainees for OJT:
“Trainee listens to instructions and carry’s out the task well. I would recommend him as he is eager to learn.”
“Trainee even worked Saturday even though is was not required.”
“Trainee was always on time and did not miss any work days.”
