You may have participated with a recent event where you learned about the upcoming statewide and community Summer Youth Employment Program.  Or you may have found out about this program on Illinois workNet.   

We have great news!  The program will be launching this month with more locations being added in early July.  SYEP is offering paid work experience to youth who qualify.  This is a chance to get paid while working at a job, learn important skills, and earn a certificate of completion that can be listed on a resume and shown to potential employers.

Just as soon as the program officially begins, we'll post the announcement on the Illinois workNets' Summer Youth Employment Program (SYEP) Website.  Be sure to bookmark this site on your computer, smartphone, iPad, or whatever device you use to access the Internet.  Also, watch your email for more information.  We'll be sending an email to announce the program very soon.

As soon as the program opens, you'll be able to see where the program is offered in communities throughout Illinois and complete the online application for enrollment in the program.  

Have a great summer!
