Ithaca Area Economic Development (IAED) in partnership with Tompkins Cortland Community College (TC3) on Aug. 30 held a graduation ceremony for a group seeking work with an area manufacturer.
The group was part of the SUNY Pre-apprenticeship Direct-to-Work: Pathways to Manufacturing program, IAED said in its announcement.
Participants spent five weeks in training and are guaranteed an interview with an area manufacturer.
The Direct to Work: Pathways to Manufacturing program is an “inclusive career initiative” that helps unemployed and underemployed people get involved in training programs and other resources, leading to entry-level jobs with Tompkins County manufacturers, per the IAED website.
Pathways to Manufacturing is a designated community-based, pre-apprenticeship program through TC3, which is part of the SUNY system, IAED said.
