Kalamazoo Crossroads Career Network

Kalamazoo Crossroads Career Network We provide career transition and job search resources to Southwest Michigan. Classes meet 8:30 - 9:45 a.m. on Sundays in Kalamazoo. Paterson St., Kalamazoo, Mich.

We were launched nearly five years ago by New Genesis Education Center, which offers personal-growth programs in the Kalamazoo, Mich., area. Most of our volunteer presenters and career coaches are seasoned professionals from corporate America, and they look forward to assisting you at our job trainings (see UPCOMING CLASSES). Kalamazoo Crossroads Career Network uses a comprehensive, 7-week curricu

lum in our trainings, and has access to many other resources, including one of the largest online job banks -- all developed by the national Crossroads Career Network organization that a few Christian business people founded to equip faith-based groups to address joblessness and job dissatisfaction in their communities.
