Hello my name is Jason. I have had a great experience working with the instructors and learning the program. I have passed al the assessments and recently have been shadowing an instructor helping students learn the program. I hope to soon become an instructor myself and gain more insight into the field.

Amazing staff and program. Their training program allowed me daughter to gain her certifications in numerous Microsoft Office programs. This allowed her to start her own small business. This is a remarkable achievement for a person with Autism. The Center for Career Freedom is a big part of how this happened.

Dear All, I would like to share about the Career Center for Freedom in White Plains, New York. I first went there with a view to getting my resume resolved and making it amenable to prospective employers, and indeed, this was done with immediate attention and not only that but a well thought through process and very wise words from staff members on how to improve the resume, and the task of updating the resume was completed by very helpful members of staff. Next, I was encouraged to participate in my passion of training on Microsoft, this has been a joy, I am now a fully qualified and certified Microsoft Specialist and now am undertaking the expert level, this will improve my job prospects dramatically! I have already been listed for a series of interviews so the response and experience has been so positive.

I have to go back to mentioning the staff, each member has been so friendly and forthcoming to provide a very safe and encouraging environment for a anybody visiting as well as volunteers, staff and clients. This means that the Center has bee a little hive of activity due to hard work but also the nature of the staff and their willingness to help others.

One thing I have found that has been invaluable that this help provided, does the job and task that it was purposed for. I have found that clients and those of whom are disabled are given something special, as I have already said, a very welcoming and pleasant friendly environment, non-judgmental and more than that, most staff and volunteers are disabled themselves. I myself am a prime example of a disabled client of whom has succeeded in passing Microsoft examinations at the center as well as being given hope and interview requests to back this up.

Therefore, I have felt that the Center for Career Freedom is an essential provider for New York, in its capacity and purpose for supporting those with disabilities and moving them along to potential work and financial stability, bring into society those outside and so creating an economic value to New York itself. I would therefore recommend the Career Center to Freedom to everyone and anyone!

Not only do you get Educational Training here, it’s done one on one at your own pace. There are so much HELPFUL opportunities here at this Center.
The most important thing for me is the PROFESSIONALISM and the fact they will go above and beyond the minute you walk in that door.
They set you up for SUCCESS and treat you like you are part of an amazing family.

The Community is BLESSED to have a place of HOPE like this.

Ms. Elizabeth, Ms. Cathy and Mr. Randel were all so very supportive when I brought my son in for information and support. He was frustrated with his current job and felt he needed to work in a job that supported his skill set and nurtured his abilities and talents. Ms. Cathy immediately was able to identify some of his strengths and began devising a plan of action to set him up for future success. Ms. ELizabeth Edgar also invited my son to return and observe positions within their organization they felt he may potentially like. He was invited to their upcoming job fair. Overall, we are happy with The Center For Career Freedom and look forward to working and collaborating with them. Thank you for your support and guidance for my son.
