Why should you join the A-RESET program?

Reason #1: Get Better Jobs!

Employability Enhancement:

The program includes a Work Experience component, providing participants with real-world work experience and training to enhance their employability. This includes On-the-job Training (OJT), Supervised Job Search, Pre-Apprenticeship/Apprenticeship, and Internship or Work Experience opportunities.

WIOA Job Training Services:

The program aligns with the Workforce Innovation and Opportunity Act (WIOA), offering job training services such as basic skills training, occupational skills training, on-the-job training, work experience, job search assistance, and more.

Job Retention Services:

For individuals who secure employment, A-RESET provides job retention services for a minimum of 30 days, supporting the transition into the workforce. This includes reimbursement for reasonable and necessary expenses such as clothing, equipment, relocation, transportation, and childcare.

Reason #2: Get Support For Education

Educational Opportunities:

 A-RESET provides Federal funding for educational programs that will help you

 secure employment or advance your career!

This includes:

* Basic/Foundational Skills Instruction

* Ready to Work (RTW) programs

* Manufacturing Skills and Standards Council (MSSC) Training Initiative

* Career/Technical Education Programs

*Integrated Education and Training (IET)

IET are programs that combine adult education and literacy activities with workforce preparation activities,

ensuring a holistic approach to skill development.

Reason #3: More Resources To Start or Grow Your Own Business

Self-Employment Training:

 Participants have the opportunity to undergo training in setting up and operating a small business

 or other self-employment ventures, promoting entrepreneurship. This is the part of the program where you can get resources to develop a business using the skill sets you have developed at Buildup!

For example, you can earn extra money through your Plumbing or HVAC business. Learn how to build your clientele, earn all the certifications, licenses, and necessary milestones that you will need to operate officially!

Start building your business credit and start working towards getting business loans

and lines of credit to really take your business to the next level!

By participating in the A-RESET program, recent high school graduates

can access a comprehensive set of resources and opportunities to propel their careers forward

and achieve greater independence.

Message From Coach Nick...

We hope this message finds you well.

 At Buildup, we are committed to supporting the growth and success of young men and women like yourself and I am making it my mission to make sure the all Buildup graduates receive all the support and resources they will need to accomplish their goals.

 We understand the challenges that come with building a future, and we are here to help you take the next step towards self-sufficiency and homeownership.

The A-RESET program is by no means a requirement to receive our help, but it will help us financially to support you in your career and educational pursuits as well as open many other doors!

Being a participant in the SNAP program is a requirement for the A-RESET program.

Most of our graduates will more than likely qualify under the household of their parents or guardians.



If you do no qualify or if you want to see if you can pursue this program as a "separate household" then we need to have a conversation sooner than later so we can get you registered!

SNAP isn't just about financial support – it's a gateway to A-RESET, our comprehensive program designed to empower you with resources for job training, job search, job retention, and education. As you spend money towards your goals and essential expenses, we ensure that every step is reported to credit bureaus, putting you on the fast track to qualifying for homeownership.

To get started, simply fill out the SNAP application and take that crucial first step towards securing your future.

By joining A-RESET, you not only receive the benefits of SNAP

but also gain access to the tools and support needed to become self-sufficient.

For those interested in entrepreneurship or business development, our business program allows you to build your business credit, providing opportunities to purchase necessary equipment and resources.

As you spend money towards your goals and progress in your career, you'll be in a prime position to leverage your business credit for further growth and access to capital.

Again, participation in the A-RESET program is not a requirement to access these resources, but it will help us support you better!

This program is immediately available to ALL Buildup graduates. 

Your journey toward financial stability and success starts here.

Don't miss out on this opportunity to invest in yourself and your future.

Best regards,

Coach Nick
