OLEAN, N.Y. — Cattaraugus One Stop Career Center announced its February schedule of workshops.
The One Stop Center’s goal is to provide constructive, convenient information to employers, businesses, workers and job seekers in Cattaraugus County. Larry Knight, the center’s manager stated, “We are part of a nationwide workforce development system designed to help capable employees find and train for better jobs and to help employers find and train qualified employees.”
One of the highlights of the center is its resource room. Job seekers can use the room to research local jobs, careers, scholarships and labor market information at their own pace, on their own. One Stop staff are on site to answer questions. Some resources available include computers, internet access for job searching online, posted job announcements and a resource library.
Orientation/Career-planning workshops are scheduled 9:30 a.m. to noon Feb. 1, 15 and 29, providing an overview of the job search and career development resources and services offered through the One Stop. Pre-registration is required; call to confirm a spot.
Knight said, “This workshop is an intro to the center for new job seekers, but also is very essential for those reentering the workforce after layoffs or career changes”.
Most services are offered at no cost to the job seeker. One Stop Career Center, 175 N. Union St., is open 8:30 a.m. to 4:30 p.m. Monday through Friday. For more information or to register for the workshop, call (716) 375-2890 or visit Cattco.Org/one-stop.
