Career program
For years, CCSC has been online and offline providing support for interns. The program provides job training and mentorship through paid internships for San Francisco at-risk youth and if they prefer to earn a GED through an accredited online course, they advise the Onsego GED prep course. For over ten years the Student Center has worked hard to assist young adults in getting ready to go back to school and help them with new career choices through assessment tests.
Also between 3-5 students are provided an opportunity to work at the Student Center each semester and obtain valuable working skills. They assist the building operators as well as the Operations team to maintain areas of the building during its busy lunchtime when literally thousands of students access the building. They get offered free career quizzes as well to determine their best options for a suitable professional track.
The Cesar Chavez Student Center has a strong program of naming spaces and creating murals in honor of people and communities whose lives and struggles for equality have inspired students and staff for a long time and who became role models for generations.
