CPTJ is a program seeking to improve the quality of life for Hispanics in the SC Midlands area through job training and employment. CPTJ seeks a collaborative partnership with local contractors who are willing to employ "job seekers" through the CPTJ program. As part of this collaborative effort, CPTJ will provide job seekers with training in such areas as English language and job skills. CPTJ will work with contractors to identify job seekers with appropriate skills to meet their needs.

We mantain an office at the Columbia One Stop Center with headquarters located at the Acercamiento Hispano de Carolina del Sur main office. Our Intake Coordinator/Community Liaison, housed at the One Stop Center, assists our participants with their job seeking efforts and developmental action planning.

Job Seeker's Responsibilities

Job seekers placed with contractors participating in the CPTJ program are responsible for:

1. Obtaining and maintaining a legal work status
2. Reporting to training and other appointments with CPTJ on time
3. Regularly attending training and other scheduled CPTJ events
4. Reporting to work on time
5. Reporting any changes in job status to CPTJ
6. Successful performance in the workplace, including a successful probation period outcome
7. Providing periodic feedback to CPTJ staff as required

Any job seeker that fails to perform any one of the above responsibilities will be subject to loss of employment with the contractor and dismissal from the CPTJ program.
