NC A&T Cooperative Extension + 4-H youth readiness

Soft skills that make young people ready to be hired.

You're Hired! helps middle school, high school, and early post-secondary learners practice communication, personal branding, conflict resolution, teamwork, customer service, responsibility, time management, and workplace professionalism through interactive micro-learning and facilitator-led experiences.

Program Concept

A youth-forward landing site connected to a Moodle LMS learning portal.

The public website markets the program, recruits learners and facilitators, explains learning pathways, and routes enrolled users into Moodle. The training portal houses SCORM modules, badges, completion tracking, reflection prompts, and facilitator evidence of practice.

Facilitator-led practice

Warm-ups, guided activities, debriefs, reflective journals, peer feedback, rubrics, and application assignments linked to real employment goals.

Audience Journey

Three connected experiences.

Learners

Start with a skill badge check, enroll in Moodle, complete short modules, collect evidence, and receive a completion credential.

Facilitators

Download activity guides, run 60-90 minute sessions, observe performance, use rubrics, and coach reflection without over-lecturing.

Program Leaders

Track enrollments, SCORM completions, activity participation, reflections, demographic reach, and readiness outcomes.
