Prime Time's Incentive Award Program, ACHIEVE OST, Prime Time's Incentive Program is Here! 
The ACHIEVE Out-of-School Time (OST) Program is here! ACHIEVE OST is a tiered incentive award program that rewards practitioners for participating in trainings and earning certificates and degrees, with an emphasis on best practices in youth development. Prime Time has sunsetted the WAGE$ Afterschool Project and is now offering the new and improved ACHIEVE OST Program. The new program is designed to increase afterschool program stability and improve program quality by reducing staff turnover and encouraging afterschool practitioners to continue their education. Children and youth benefit from continuous care from practitioners who are specialists in the out-of-school-time field, understand best practices in youth development and are sensitive to their needs.
