Overview


The criteria for student participation in GPP Workplace: 

  1. Students in danger of not graduating from high school
  2. Students without major or consistent behavioral problems 
  3. Students who qualify for free/reduced priced lunch 
  4. Students who are at least 16 years old and eligible to work in Georgia (Workplace)
  5. Students with high potential but who don’t typically qualify for other programs


GPP Workplace  is the placement of students in a cooperative education opportunity similar to other WBL placements. Workplace allows the student to receive on-the-job training and life skills within business settings, such as a corporate office, small business, or an industrial setting, such as a manufacturing or distribution facility. Students hold entry-level positions with real deliverables and expectations. Here they learn important workplace skills, such as communication, job performance, goal-setting, and decision making, while not only receiving a paycheck, but also receiving additional support through mentoring, tutoring, career coaching, and life skills sessions.



WorkPrep focuses on preparing those same students who are too young or not yet ready for employment. WorkPrep engages high school students at risk of not graduating in regularly scheduled life skills training, leadership development, college and career planning, and face-time with community and state leaders. These programs are hosted at local school sites..


REAL Skills Days

All GPP students will have the opportunity to participate in Regional Employability And Life Skills Days REAL Skills Days focus on college and career preparation, leadership skills development, team-building and the empowerment of the individual students, as well as providing an opportunity for students to meet other GPP students from their area. 


GPP Leadership Day at the Capitol

Leadership Day is an opportunity to excite and engage Great Promise Partnership youth in leadership and civics. After a morning focused on leadership, youth will spend time at the state capitol visiting with legislators and learning about the legislative process.
