Moving up, a job retention program for young adults, is described. Sections of this report look at: first steps -- enrollment, training, and job readiness; placement and follow-up -- where job retention begins; and nine principles for successful job retention. Accompanying charts illustrate the employment prospects of young adults and the cost of Moving Up. An appendix provides information about the Vocational Foundation, Inc. (VFI) which runs Moving Up. Two years after getting their first job, more than 74% of Moving Up graduates are still active in the program, with 63% still employed.
