The CCIR program enhances TPL’s job and career services, with a focus on younger adults, by providing access to employment guidance and workforce skill development. Services include a collection of career and business library resources, eLearning tools, online courses, the Entrepreneur in Residence program and workshops to assist youth in their career journey.
