Our tutors provide students with extra exercises, different <br />approaches and explanations that help deepen the learning. They are available for all programs <br />every afternoon. <br />Career Closet <br />With the help from the community we are able to provide <br />professional clothes on our campus to help students get ready for <br />interviews. If we cannot find them the right fit we will make a <br />referral to Working Wardrobes or Women Helping Women. <br />Community Services /Volunteer Opportunities <br />We believe that finding a way to give back to the community not only makes a positive impact <br />but also provides students with skills, experience and confidence. We encourage our students <br />to get involved and offer community volunteer opportunities. If students complete 30+ hours of <br />community service by the end of their program they will receive an award and be recognized at <br />graduation. <br />EXHIBIT A <br />25D -452 <br />
