Charleston Job Corps welcomes two new work-based learning partners
The Charleston Job Corps is pleased to welcome two new work-based learning partners -- First Baptist Church/Business Annex and Oak Ridge Center. First Baptist will provide hands-on training and job experience for students in the painting, carpentry and facilities maintenance career technical training programs. Oak Ridge, an assisted living and nursing care facility, provides work-based learning internships to Charleston's Certified Nursing Assistant students. Additionally, Oak Ridge has hired Charleston graduates for full-time employment at the center.
Work-based learning is an important component of the career training students receive at Job Corps. These WBL internships provide students with on-the-job training and real world work experience. Employers, through these WBL internships, provide-on-the-job training to potential employees prior to hiring them, ensuring that these potential employees match the needs of the organization and are fully trained before being hired. Together, WBL partners and Job Corps provide students with the skills, training and experience they need to succeed in today's competitive job market.
