About English & Digital Skills Training
We support immigrants in and around Philadelphia to achieve work, education, and life goals by learning the English language, U.S. culture, and digital skills.
The English for Job Search class integrates English language, digital literacy, and career readiness skills, helping students to develop new skills and transfer existing skills to a U.S. work context, so that they may obtain new employment, improve existing employment, or pursue further education and training.
English for Job Search participants are English language learners and immigrants with a low – intermediate English level or higher who would like to find employment, improve their current employment, or pursue further education or training. The program is delivered at no cost to participants.
