The Nashville Career Advancement Center connects youth, ages 14-21, with opportunities to learn about the workplace and careers, helps them have the academic credentials they need to be employable, and provides community service and leadership development opportunities to help them gain the soft skills they will need to maintain employment.

We do this through guiding and overseeing the programs we directly administer and by developing partnerships with youth-serving organizations throughout the four counties.

In an effort to assure leadership in the areas of customer service and service delivery, NCAC has conducted a Youth Program evaluation. 

Nine young adults representing each of the area’s 6 WIA Youth programs were selected to work on the committee with Dorcas Sheffield, Committee Coordinator, and Cheri Hoffman, Data Analyst.  Together they compiled survey questions and results to determine how well each WIA Youth program was operating from the customer’s point of view.

Within those results were 3 main areas to be addressed.

1.   Relationships between youth and program adults

2.   Satisfaction with peer interaction opportunities

3.   Utilization of all available program actives.
