Words that Welcome
Words that Welcome is a program for people learning English. It offers classes that focus on language skills needed for jobs in the hospitality industry.
Workers can start the program on the first Tuesday of every month at 10 am by attending an orientation session at Seattle Jobs Initiative located at Pacific Tower, 1200 12th Ave S, Seattle, WA 98144. Metro bus routes 36 and 60 stop right at Pacific Tower. Light Rail stops at Beacon Hill Transit Center. From there you can take Metro bus 36 northbound towards the tower.
Eligible participants are current employees of partner employers who are also members of UNITE HERE! Local 8. See the Jobs link for the list of partner employers.
Courses may be taken online on your own device like a smartphone or tablet.
You may also use the computer lab located at Seattle Jobs Initiative every Tuesday from 10 am to noon.
The Prep Table
The Pacific Northwest Hospitality Training Program is currently taking interest applications from persons considering starting a culinary career with a union hospitality employer.
The Prep Table is a pre-employment training meant for those who are currently unemployed and interested in working in a commercial kitchen in an entry-level role with a unionized employer.
This is a pilot training program developed in partnership with UNITE HERE! Local 8, the hospitality union, and unionized employers in Seattle.
This pilot program will be taught in English; future offerings will be in other languages. Intermediate English fluency is recommended to safely communicate with co-workers and take direction from supervisors.
Working in a commercial kitchen is physically demanding. If standing for long periods—often up to eight hours—is difficult for you, this career may present challenges. Kitchen roles also require a mix of physical skills: fine motor skills for tasks like dicing vegetables or measuring ingredients precisely, and gross motor skills for lifting and carrying heavy items.
Our training program includes instruction on proper body mechanics to help prepare participants for the physical demands of the job and promote long-term safety and success in the kitchen.
