Congratulations to Valencia College, who for the third straight year is a Metallica Scholar college, having received a $25,000 grant from heavy metal band’s Scholars Initiative.
The program provides valuable tuition support and accelerated skills training needed for today’s workforce and students who complete the program see new job opportunities and increased salaries up to three times higher than before they enrolled in a technical or trades training program.
Upskilling programs like these are essential to meeting our region’s demand for skilled workers while also improving the earning potential of our residents who need it the most. Congratulations to Valencia and thank you for continuing to advance Broad-based Prosperity® through programs like this. https://bit.ly/3d3uK2e
