Sessions include topics such as self-discovery, building a personal brand, communication, conflict management, professionalism, creating a resume, and connecting with local business professionals to talk about careers. The capstone session of the program is an employability workshop that includes programming led by local business professionals and educational institutions. Upon completion, students will receive a $500 stipend and a Work Ready credential from Greater Winston-Salem, Inc."
