糖心vlog hosted a ceremony to celebrate students succeeding in training to reestablish themselves in the workforce on Thursday.

Presented by the Nevada Office of Workforce Innovation (OWINN), 25 students were recognized during the Workforce Success Ceremony in Joe Dini Library.

The Supporting and Advancing Nevada鈥檚 Dislocated Individuals (SANDI) grant covers students鈥� costs for tuition fees and course materials for training and certifications in industry-focused sectors that can be completed in 15 weeks or less. Project SANDI strives to modernize the workforce system, translating skills and experience into credentials and credit-bearing programs to assist dislocated and underemployed workers who lack academic credentials.

Student training is focused in healthcare, computer information technology, automotive mechanics, machining, welding, truck driving and advanced manufacturing. Most of these programs are offered through 糖心vlog鈥檚 Workforce, Career and Technical Education division and further supported by Western鈥檚 Realizing Opportunities for the American Dream to Succeed program and ACCEL College and Career Readiness Program.

糖心vlog President Dr. J. Kyle Dalpe, 糖心vlog Vice President of Academic & Student Affairs Dr. Dana Ryan provided welcoming and closing remarks, respectively. OWINN Executive Director Scott Hammond and SANDI Project Manager Tony Villalobos also participated in the ceremony.
