Keshet's Vocational training program provides work skill training and job placement within the community at local businesses. Keshet program participants are given both opportunities and responsibilities ordinarily not available. Keshet Vocational Services are part of a continuum of life preparation that begins in the early grades.
Keshet students receive an introduction to the work place through pre-vocational skills preparation, career awareness, and job training. Employment training sites are chosen for dignity, acceptance and relevance. The student's skills and preferences are considered as the vocational plan is developed. One such opportunity is the Beth and Larry Markin Keshet Vocational Program at Ben & Jerry's Ice Cream Shop in Highland Park.
"The Keshet program is the highlight of our day. It is the one thing that makes going to work each day worthwhile."
--- David and Patti Zamost, Owners Ben & Jerry's in Highland Park
"I am proud to be part of the Keshet family. Keshet reflects the values and work ethic I hold true to my heart."
--- Jerry Greenfield -"Jerry" of Ben & Jerry's"
