March YLP Session (Nutrition & Fitness)

Fueling the body. Strengthening the mind. Building leaders. 💪🏽

Our Youth Leadership Program participants took a deep dive into nutrition and fitness, learning how the foods they eat impact their energy, mood, and overall health. From calorie challenges and label comparisons to workout relays and team-based diet competitions, students engaged in hands-on activities designed to build healthier habits and smarter everyday choices.

Because leadership starts with self-discipline—and that includes how you care for your body.

YLP February Session – Body Image & Etiquette

The Youth Leadership Program’s February session sparked thoughtful conversation as youth leaders explored body image and etiquette through engaging activities and peer-led discussion.

We were also excited to welcome The Training Source Board member Valerie Jones, who shared her career journey in the federal government and military background, inspiring questions and curiosity from our students.

The day also included a special visit from Delta Kappa Gamma, a group of educators who have previously partnered with The Training Source. In preparation for their annual meeting held at our facility, they organized a professional clothing donation drive and delivered the items to support our participants.

The visit also created a meaningful moment of cross-generational engagement, as YLP members Doug and Lariena shared their experiences in the Youth Leadership Program and how it has strengthened their leadership, confidence, and presentation skills.

One educator later shared:

“Those of us who attended were very impressed with your youth work and the services that you provide for the community. The Training Source clearly fills a void.”


Moments like these highlight the power of community partnerships and mentorship in helping young leaders grow and thrive.

🎓 Celebrating Our First OPST Graduates of 2026!

Last week, 7 participants successfully completed The Training Source’s first Office & Professional Services Training (OPST) cohort of 2026.

During Weeks 3–5 of the 8-week program, inclement weather required adapting to a hybrid learning model and returned in person to finish strong. Their dedication showed in the results: 100% of participants earned the Certified Guest Service Professional credential, averaging 94% on the certification exam and completing Microsoft Office Suites technical training.

We’re also excited to welcome new trainer Korey Dean. Professor Dean, partnered with Deputy Director Lynnette Pair Young to guide and support the cohort through challenges and growth along the way – ensuring they embodied The Training Source’s “Engineered for Excellence” standard. Alongside Executive Director Nekeisia Booyer and Board Chair Josephine Scarlet, they joined together to congratulate the graduates during the certification ceremony.

Graduates now move into Phase II: Job Search Assistance, where they’ll continue professional development and strengthen strategies to advance their career pathways.

✨ To celebrate their journey, the cohort even turned the “Engineered for Excellence” creed into a song during graduation.

🎶 Take a listen to their performance towards the end of the slideshow!
