Career training + on-the-job experience = SUCCESS
Quality career training and on-the-job experience through work-based learning helped Marycait Hoke, 24, land a job as a data quality specialist with the West Virginia Supreme Court of Appeals. Hoke will be working in the Kanawha City location.
Before enrolling in the Office Administration career technical training program at the Charleston Job Corps Center in April 2014, Hoke graduated from Lincoln County High School in Hamlin, WV and attended Marshall University and West Virginia State University. While at CJCC, Hoke completed Work Based Learning at Area Wide Protective, Dunbar, WV, and Lyne Ranson’s Law Office on Kanawha Boulevard, Charleston, WV. At both WBL internships, she was responsible for answering telephones, completing time schedules, organizing files, copying and additional office duties. Hoke also worked on the CJCC student newspaper, typing and editing articles. James Brown, office administration instructor, said, “Marycait was one of my best Office Administration students and understood the philosophy of ‘Playing like a Champion Everyday’, as well as striving for excellence. I know that Marycait will do great things because she is truly a success story.”
Hoke thanks Mr. Brown and Steven Canterbury, administrative director, West Virginia Judiciary, who helped with her job placement. Her words of wisdom to current and future Job Corps students are: “Things may get hard, but if you can make it through, you will have a great reward.”
For Marycait and students like her, Job Corps works!
