 * Mini Course: Attitudes for Success **

Attitudes for Success is a 6-week training module designed for at-risk youth. Attitudes is the first module in a larger year-long program. As the first module in the program, Attitudes will teach students to identify and adopt the mindset needed to successfully participate in the rest of the curriculum and succeed in an academic environment. Attitudes will address mental preparedness, study habits and work ethic, personal responsibility and awareness, community building, and commitment to the program. Students will also learn how to apply these attitudes to their future academics, work, and personal pursuits. Once students have completed this course, they will progress to the subsequent training modules in office skills, work place readiness, and post-secondary educational opportunities.
