(please consider these offerings from Scott Albert of the Workforce Development team...jim)

In addition to the great training possibilities outlined above, the YWCA of Greater Pittsburgh's Workforce Development team also conducts various Fee for Service trainings. These trainings are typically offered to local businesses, organizations and clubs located in and around the Pittsburgh area. All Fee for Service trainings are customized for the consumer in order to match the workplace environment and to best serve our customers' interest.

Fee for Services
Current Fee for Service trainings include:

MS Office Trainings: The Workforce Development's Training Team will conduct onsite or offsite trainings for interested candidates. Any computer related training can be designed and customized to meet the specific needs of any employer. Employers can be certain that their employees will leave our MS Office training with a thorough understanding of the products, their uses and applications.



Goals/Organization: Typically Goals and Organization go hand in hand. The Workforce Development's Training Team is committed to helping employers meet their business goals. The Goal Setting/Organization workshop can be designed with a company's specific focus in mind or conducted simply to help employees become organized in order to meet any goal.
Professional Writing Workshop: This workshop introduces strategies that will make writing and communication for effective. Topics in this workshop include business grammar, power vocabulary, language techniques, letter writing strategies, email and clear communication approaches. This workshop is guaranteed to help make workplace communication more effective and efficient.

ESL in the Workplace: Often the communication process in a work environment can break down when people of other countries struggle to follow verbal directions, have difficulty adjusting to workplace culture or are intimidated about sharing good ideas simply because of their lack of confidence in the spoken/written language. English as a Second Language in the Workplace is designed to break down those barriers for individuals so that the workplace may run more effectively.


Diversity: In an ever-changing and diverse culture, it is often necessary for employers and employees to learn about each other's differences, similarities and customs. Diversity trainings are customized for each individual work environment. Thorough evaluation of the workplace's demographics is conducted before implementation of this training.

Math in the Workplace: The age of computers and high-tech calculators has made it very easy for us all to forget about the basic Mathematical concepts that are so crucial to our everyday lives. Topics in this workshop include percentages, fractions, statistical math, basic operations and anything else deemed appropriate for the workplace.

Professional Presentations: Learning to set up a slide show in MS PowerPoint is just the beginning. The act of actually usually the presentation is another thing. The Professional Presentations workshop will teach participants the fine art of presenting verbally to a group, and professionally on paper. The training will also show participants how to use info and data from other MS Office Applications in the PowerPoint Presentation.

The current pay scale for Fee for Service Trainings is $200 per hour if conducted onsite at the YWCA of Greater Pittsburgh and $250 per hour if conducted in the workplace.

The fees include all necessary preparations and materials. If additional preparation time or materials are necessary in order to conduct an effective training, additional costs may be implemented.
