PINE KNOT JOB CORPS CENTER

INTRODUCTION:

The United States Department of Agriculture (USDA) - Forest Service, Pine Knot Job Corps Center, located at 132 Job Corp Rd., Pine Knot, Kentucky, is a residential, educational, and vocational training facility for students 16 to 24 years of age. The Pine Knot Job Corps Center is the place of performance for this contract. The mission of the Center is to provide academic, vocational, and life learning skills to at-risk youths.

BACKGROUND:

Job Corps is a U.S. Department of Labor, Employment and Training Administration (ETA) program. Job Corps is designed to assist young people who need, and can benefit from, the wide range of services provided at a Job Corps Center. Through its Centers, Job Corps offers academic, vocational and life skills training using a unique approach of competency-based and individualized instruction. Services include basic education, High School Diploma (HSD) program; General Education Development (GED) program; vocational skills training; residential living program; healthcare; and related support services.

The comprehensive combination of training and support services is designed to help each student become a responsible and productive citizen.

Approximately 150 students live full-time at the Pine Knot Job Corps Center. The students attend classes at the Center. The Center has educational classroom facilities, hands on trade areas, a cafeteria, health services, recreational facilities, and dormitories.

Because Job Corps is a self-paced program, a student’s length of enrollment varies. Students may remain in the program for up to two years, but the average length of enrollment is approximately nine to twelve months. An optional third year is granted to students who qualify for advanced training. Upon completion of the program, students are better prepared to obtain meaningful employment or further their education through Job Corps sponsored Advanced Career Training (ACT) or college. Career transition services are provided to all students separating from Job Corps.
