CHILDREN, TEENS & YOUNG ADULTS

   

Children  (Ages 8-13)

     Children learn important skills that will allow them to feel comfortable with themselves and others as they enter a wider social milieu.  Combined with a dining experience, our program covers everything from developing confidence in making introductions to understanding how to tackle an unfamiliar table presentation.

 

Teens (Ages 13-17)

      For teenagers, we expand the children’s program and address those areas of interest such as the dating scene and the job market.  This program is especially popular with teenagers around prom time!

 

Young Adults (Ages 18-22)

      It is a known fact that 85% of the reason a person gets a job, keeps a job and advances in a job has to do with interpersonal and communication skills.  Only 15% is related to a person’s technical skills.  Knowing this, Professional Courtesy has developed this program to address these need in young people who want to distinguish themselves whether in a job interview or an engagement with the boss.
