To help combat soaring unemployment due to the COVID-19 pandemic, the Baltimore Job Hunters Support Group (BJHSG) is seeking unemployed workers from the Greater Baltimore area for a new intensive incubator program titled TEAMWORKS (TMWKS). This 12-week virtual program will start on Monday, June 1, 2020. BJHSG is currently recruiting for the first TMWKS cohort of 25 participants. The primary goal of the program is to prevent laid-off workers from becoming long term unemployed by quickly equipping them with the knowledge, skills, and abilities to make the best decisions about their lives and career paths. The program is free of charge to participants.
BJHSG will launch the second session of the TMWKS program on August 24th to serve a total of 50 adult participants who have lost their jobs due to the COVID pandemic or other layoffs within the last 6 months. The TMWKS curriculum challenges participants to ReCharge, ReDesign, and ReBuild. The "Three Re’s" material is presented simultaneously throughout the 3-day (Monday, Tuesday, Wednesday), 18 hours per week program in a 100% virtual format. Each participant will be expected to complete class and homework assignments and meet with a career coach and a counselor weekly. In addition, participants will complete entrepreneurial training, a LinkedIn Bootcamp, a unique visioning workshop, and sessions on creativity, mindfulness, and maintaining good mental health.
We need curriculum writers and teachers with lesson planning expertise to help us turn our eclectic selection of textbooks into lesson plans using a specified BJHSG format. Writers will be provided with a copy of the book, which they may keep, and will be credited for their work.
Books that we would like to have converted into lessons plans:
55, Unemployed and Faking Normal, Elizabeth White
Forgive for Good, Fred Luskin
Getting Unstuck, Timothy Butler
A Mind at Home with Itself, Byron Katie
Crucial Conversations, Patterson, McMillian and Switzler
Power Moves, Lauren McGoodwin
The New Rules of Work, Cavoulacos and Minshew
