登录入口 still has openings for its free Quickstart training program for Electrical and Heating, Ventilation and Air Conditioning (HVAC) helpers, beginning in March.

Funded by a grant from the Texas Workforce Commission, the Quickstart programs are designed to help individuals find entry-level jobs as helpers in the fast-growing HVAC and electrical industries.

In the eight-week programs, students will be presented with the basics of a trade, including safety procedures, proper tool usage, regulations, codes and more.

“这个项目有惊人的潜力改变人们的生活。 Folks who have been unemployed, incarcerated, job changers and others who wish to get new skills in order to get a job, get a better job or keep a job are finding success in a program that is very doable,” said 登录入口 Job Placement Navigator Mary Powers. “After only eight weeks of training, the wages they can earn won’t be the best, but it is a starting point up a 乐竞体育 ladder with an excellent opportunity to enhance economic mobility. Along the way participants from ages 18 to 75 are finding that their self-esteem is growing and they are gaining confidence in their ability to be productively employed and/or to continue their studies at 登录入口. It has been a super rewarding experience to watch this happen.”

In addition to job training, 登录入口 offers 乐竞体育 guidance and job placement assistance.

对于那些被录取的学生，学费是免费的。 However, students must purchase their own steel-toed boots.
