Hello Scholars!
I’m excited to share with you an opportunity for ages 18-24 to take advantage of FREE CTE courses/certifications in the construction industry beginning next month! (April 2023) Classes will be held at The ROC on Northside’s campus each Tues, Wed, and Thursday from 3-6:00 with limited seating. Each student will have access to a ChromeBook loaded with industry standard software for learning and certifications along with hands-on training. The goal is to provide each student with the skills needed for permanent job placement at the end of the courses.
Take a look at what The ROC has been up to at both campuses and please refer any motivated candidates to me for more information and to reserve their seat!
