Personalized
Approach
The
Springfield Employment & Training Center
Providing
employment guidance, training
and placement services to Illinois job seekers. 
IETC
professionals provide a broad array of career guidance services
that are tailored to your particular needs. The center provides
a variety of services for job seekers, including: career counseling,
education and job-training guidance, financial aid for education
and training, personalized career plans, unemployment insurance
services, America's Job Bank, and other Internet job listings,
and referrals to partner organizations.
When
you visit the center, you will meet with a career specialist
who can tell you about all of the services we provide and help
you plan your job search. In addition, our staff can help you
develop your resume, write a cover letter to an employer and
sharpen your interviewing skills.
In
addition to expert guidance, you can also use the IETC as you
look for a job. We provide computers, printers, fax machines
and copiers to help you communicate your interest to potential
employers. If you are out of work, the IETC staff can help determine
your eligibility for securing unemployment insurance benefits.
Based on your meeting eligibility criteria, we can also open
the door to:
Vocational and technical training
College courses
Computer training
Basic skills courses
GED completion programs
English as a Second Language
Professional workshops, seminars and entrepreneur
training
On-the-job training, internships and apprenticeships
We
can also advise you on financial assistance while training or
furthering your education. Based on your needs, we can connect
you to training courses that fit your career goals.
On-site,
in the classroom and in the field, your IETC can help you locate
the training opportunities to take the first steps toward a
new career. IETCs develop on-the-job training programs, including
internships, apprenticeships and customized referrals.
