Denver Workforce Services is partnering with the AARP Foundation to bring the BACK TO WORK 50+ program to older adults four times a year. The program goal is simple: get older workers employed. To aid in this goal, DEDO helps to prepare job seekers for the current workplace through the following coaching content:
- Effective resume and cover letter writing
- Interview strengthening
- Self-marketing techniques
- Upskilling/educational opportunities – especially as regards digital skills
- Networking strategies
- Q&A session with recruiters from various organizations
The program starts with a one-hour overview webinar that is then followed in subsequent weeks with group coaching sessions where we further flesh out the topics listed above through a more interactive platform. Job seekers also receive 1:1 job coaching from Eckerd Connects, through which they may be eligible for training dollars.
