🎓 Celebrating Our 2026 SYEP Graduates!
As many of the youth and young adults who successfully completed The Training Source’s 2026 Summer Youth Enrichment Program (SYEP) transition back to high school, college, or work, we’re taking a moment to proudly celebrate their accomplishments this summer!
36 youth and young adults ages 16–24 completed six weeks of hybrid job readiness training through our Summer of Success and Administrative Support Career JumpStart cohorts.
🏆 97% earned the AHLEI Guest Service Professional Certificate, averaging 91% on the exam!
🎤 Graduates also put their communication skills into practice by delivering a 60-second professional introduction, preparing them to confidently answer “Tell me about yourself” when networking and connecting with employers.
We were honored to celebrate with Maryland Delegate Derrick Coley, who encouraged graduates to continue pursuing their goals, and grateful to our Prince George’s County Office of Human Resources Management SYEP Administrators for their partnership and support.
As our Executive Director, Nekeisia Booyer, shared with graduates, this summer was more than a job readiness program—it was an opportunity to build skills, discover possibilities, develop their voice, and begin turning experience into opportunity.
Congratulations, Class of 2026! 🎓 We’re proud of you and excited to see what’s next!
Skills Today. Careers Tomorrow.
