SYEP CAREER READY | SYEP CREDIT PILOT

Students who were accepted into this year’s SYEP Career Ready Program through BTECH have all been notified of their worksites and assignments this summer.

 

The SYEP Career Ready initiative provides youth with paid opportunities to explore potential career interests and pathways, allowing participants to engage in learning experiences that help develop their professional, social, civic, and leadership skills. SYEP participants are compensated for their work at diverse worksites that include business/finance, fashion, philanthropy, technology, arts/culture, engineering/construction, healthcare, legal services, real estate, transportation, advertising/marketing, hospitality/tourism, media/entertainment, and retail. 

 

SYEP CREDIT PILOT

 

All students (excluding graduated seniors) have been enrolled in the Credit Pilot Program this summer.

 

This year not only will students be able to explore different career interests and pathways, but all participants who attend a Career-Ready School and are in grades nine to eleven will also be receiving ONE elective credit. You will complete forty-five (45) hours of the credit pilot program which you will be paid for and complete the remaining 105 hours at your worksites. Seniors will be able to complete all 150 hours at their respective worksites. 

 

Please be mindful that you will be paid while you are attending and your worksite supervisors are aware of the program.
