Check Out Your Local
Employment Resources Center
by Barbara Summers, Employer Services Supervisor, Casper ERC


Many services are available to students and teachers at your local Employment Resource Centers (ERC). The Centers are equipped to do more than simply refer individuals to part-time and full-time job openings. At each Center, a Resource Room provides not only computer access to the Internet but also word processing programs which allow job seekers to write their own resumes. There are Vocational Counselors on staff who can assist individuals with making career choices and provide information about work opportunities nationwide. These counselors can also discuss the Americans with Disabilities Act and what Equal Employment Opportunities mean. Workshops are available at each Center offering such topics as resume writing and effective interviewing techniques. On-the-job training and work experience programs are in place for eligible students. Also, staff members from the ERCs can visit a classroom and make a presentation on any of the above topics.

All of these valuable services are offered at no cost to students or other job seekers. To obtain information about any and all services, give your local ERC a call at the numbers listed below or visit them on the Internet. Employment Resources Centers will soon be opening in the towns of Douglas, Wheatland, Newcastle, Lander, Kemmerer, and Afton.
