Technical Education Assistance and Mentoring (TEAM)
The TEAM Careers Program at SF College provides supportive career, educational and mentoring services to eligible students in career and technical degree programs to help them meet their goals in a successful and timely manner.
TEAM Careers focuses on students who study in a program that is nontraditional for their gender. You are a nontraditional student if you are enrolled in a program that leads to an occupation in which either women or men comprise 25 percent or less of total employment. When you choose a career based on your abilities and interests, regardless of your gender, you have the opportunity to achieve greater job satisfaction, earnings potential, and success in your field.
Who is eligible?
In addition to nontraditional students, TEAM Careers also assists the following qualifying students who are enrolled in A.S. and A.A.S. Degree Programs, or Career and Technical Certificate Programs:
- Displaced homemakers
- Students with disabilities
- Single parents
- Single pregnant women
- Students with limited English proficiency
