What job training and employment corporation (jtec) does

Job Training and Employment Corporation (JTEC) is a private non-profit corporation founded in 1984 that administers federal and state workforce development grants in southeastern Massachusetts. Headquartered in Hyannis, JTEC has served as the lead agency of the Cape Cod career center since 1999, operating the MassHire Cape and Islands Career Center under the statewide MassHire brand. The organization delivers free employment-related services to job seekers (adults age 18+, youth 16-24, veterans, and individuals with serious barriers to employment) and to employers across Barnstable, Dukes, and Nantucket Counties. A Board of Directors (Chairman Lisa Meade, Vice Chairman John Corcoran, Treasurer Tim Chapin, plus Directors) governs the organization with Kristina E. Dower serving as President and Executive Director, Judi Bricklin as VP of Finance/CFO, and Joan Rezendes as VP of Facilities and Special Projects.

JTEC operates through two principal service channels. The MassHire Cape and Islands Career Center provides job search preparation workshops (resumes, cover letters, interview skills), HiSET preparation, an 8-week Microsoft Office instruction program, paid on-the-job training, free skills training, out-of-school youth services, and a Youth Parent Program for pregnant and parenting teens aged 14-23.5. For employers, the center offers free job posting, candidate matching, job fairs, conference room access, SHL Assessment tools, and Burning Glass Labor Insight data. The affiliate Community Action Committee of Cape Cod & Islands (CACCI), which JTEC fiscally and operationally manages, extends the service array into social services including certified Massachusetts Health Connector navigation, Child Care Network referrals, an Immigration Resource Center, VITA free tax preparation, and the Safe Harbor emergency shelter for women and children. All services are delivered at no charge to eligible individuals and employers.

JTEC's business model is 100% grant-funded, with revenue derived from the U.S. Department of Labor and the Massachusetts Department of Career Services, channeled through the Cape & Islands Workforce Investment Board. The organization has no proprietary technology products, no pricing structure for end users, and no earned revenue line. Service delivery relies on physical one-stop center infrastructure (88 North Street administration and 372 North Street operations, both in Hyannis), partner agency referrals from the Massachusetts Department of Unemployment Assistance, Department of Transitional Assistance, and Massachusetts Rehabilitation Commission, and consumer self-service via a physical Resource Center offering computers, fax, and resume software.

Comparable to JTEC in combining employment services with social-service wraparounds for low-income and immigrant populations.
