Job Service offices across South Dakota have planned fun events this summer for teens and young adults ages 14-24 to explore careers in their communities, engage with businesses and educators and prepare for the world of work.
It’s part of the state Department of Labor and Regulation’s Summer Passport Series.
In-person sessions start as early as tomorrow (June 2, 2023) and run through the summer. Participants may be eligible to earn $25 for every in-person event attended.
Youth can choose from a variety of sessions including financial literacy, life skills, job search readiness, dressing for success, applications and interviews, workplace etiquette and more.
Business and college/university tours are also offered at many locations.
View or download flyers with a list of sessions offered by location at dlr.sd.gov/summer-passport. Registration for in-person events is required. Click on the “Register” link for the corresponding location.
Individuals may attend events at more than one location. Some events may include lunch and/or transportation options, which are noted on the flyer.
Virtual sessions will be offered five Tuesdays throughout the summer at 10:30am CDT starting next week (June 6, 2023). Topics include social media, hot careers, personalities in the workplace, communication and apprenticeship opportunities.
Registration is not required for virtual sessions. The link to each session will be made available on the summer-passport page before the day of the event.
