Glenmont Job Corps Center | Help Students Start Strong & Prepare for What's Next

Are you great at connecting with young people, building confidence, and helping someone turn “I don't know what I want to do” into a plan for their future?

Glenmont Job Corps Center is seeking a motivated and supportive Career Preparation Program (CPP) Instructor to help newly enrolled students successfully begin their Job Corps journey.

CPP is one of the first stages of a student's experience at Job Corps. You'll help students adjust to Center life, understand expectations, identify career goals, develop workplace skills, and prepare to transition into their chosen career training program.

Think of this role as part instructor, part career coach, part mentor, and part student success guide.

What Does a CPP Instructor Actually Do?

Simply put:

• You help students get off to a strong start.
• Many students are entering a new environment, meeting new people, exploring career options, and learning what will be expected of them in training and the workplace.
• You'll provide classroom instruction, coaching, and individualized support to help students successfully navigate that transition.

What You'll Do

• Teach & Prepare — Provide engaging Career Preparation instruction and help students develop skills they'll need throughout Job Corps.
• Build Career Goals — Help students identify interests, establish career goals, and develop individualized achievement plans.
• Track Student Progress — Monitor performance, identify students who may need additional support, and help keep them moving toward successful CPP completion.
• Coach & Mentor — Build positive professional relationships while helping students develop confidence, accountability, and independence.
• Create a Positive Classroom — Maintain an organized, engaging, and supportive learning environment with clear expectations.
• Help Students Transition — Prepare students to move successfully from Career Preparation into academics, Career Technical Training, and other areas of the Job Corps program.
• Maintain Accurate Records — Complete required student documentation and follow all program integrity and reporting requirements.

Your involvement may begin before a student even arrives on Center.

• Pre-arrival student contact
• Transportation coordination
• CPP Welcome Celebrations
• Student needs assessments
• Center tours
• Staff introductions and orientation activities

You're helping turn a student's first days at Job Corps into the beginning of a plan for their future.

Who Would Be Great in This Role?

• Can teach, coach, motivate, and encourage others
• Have strong communication and classroom management skills
• Can establish expectations while remaining supportive
• Are organized and comfortable maintaining student documentation
• Can help students develop realistic goals and action plans
• Work well with people from different backgrounds and experiences
• Can collaborate with other departments to support student success
• Are patient, dependable, positive, and professional
• Want your work to have a direct impact on young people's futures

Why Glenmont Job Corps?

At Glenmont Job Corps, you'll be part of a team helping young adults build the education, career skills, confidence, and independence they need for their next chapter.

And as a CPP Instructor, you'll be one of the first people helping them figure out what that chapter could look like.
