PHILADELPHIA (CBS) – Career Wardrobe is expanding its services.

For 17 years Career Wardrobe has helped low income area women dress for the interview and job.

Executive director Sheri Cole says it's now offering seminars to help women and men learn the skills they need to perform and keep a job.

"With doing job readiness education we're able to also expand our services to help men in our communities as well, so cohorts of 10-15 men and women will sign up for a two week class and during that two week class there are six half day sessions," Cole explains.

The Gateway to Success Seminar Program will teach such skills as communication, computer use, interviewing and time management
