Offering hands-on automotive, welding, and culinary classes to prepare youth for the workplace.

Rawhide offers four courses through our behavioral job training program to residential and community youth. This trauma-informed, behavioral program provides career training through curriculum-based education, while receiving industry certificates of completion and earning academic credit.

Job Training Classes

Career Development Class

This class was specially designed in partnership with Goodwill NCW to help youth who’ve suffered trauma learn essential vocational skills. Supported by the Department of Vocational Rehabilitation, students will explore careers, create résumés and prepare for the workforce.

Culinary Arts Class

This is a hands-on course using the National Restaurant Association ServSafe, Fusion’s Safety and Pollution Prevention Trainings, and Fox Valley Technical College’s Culinary curricula to prepare youth for a career in the culinary arts.

Automotive Class

This is a hands-on course using the Wisconsin Auto & Truck Dealers Association curriculum and Fusion’s Safety and Pollution Prevention Trainings to prepare youth for an automotive technology career.

Welding Class

Using standards designed by the American Welding Society, youth get hands-on welding experience at our Rawhide Job Training Classroom located at Titan Conveyors in New London, preparing students for a career in the welding industry.

Why is this Important?

Our unique program offers struggling youth the chance for a brighter future, teaching them financial independence, new skills, confidence-building, and overcoming employment barriers.

The more youth who go through this program, the more positive impact we can have when they return to their old environment that led them to Rawhide.
