Over at his blog, D.C. Council member Kwame Brown is pimping the new fall classes available from the city’s Workforce Development Program. These are free job training classes available to D.C. adults, most of which start later this month. You can download a list of classes and registration materials from the CCDC web site. The types of classes offered include carpentry, pre-apprenticeship construction, hospitality industry, computer basics, medical billing, Spanish in the workplace, and more. To apply, residents need first to take a screening test to determine reading and mathematics levels. Testing is available Tuesdays and Thursdays at 5 p.m. at the Hospitality Public Charter High School at Roosevelt High School (13th and Upshur St. NW) or PR Harris (4600 Livingston Rd. SE) Monday – Thursday at 1 p.m. or 5 p.m.
