“Helping skilled tradespeople find employment with businesses that are hiring in Louisiana is our goal for the Industrial Trades Job Fair,” stated Nancy Roy, Director of Client Relations and Student Recruitment for SLCC’s Economic & Workforce Development. “We’ve found that businesses that need to fill positions with certified and licensed skilled workers have more success in finding quality candidates at in-person events.”
SLCC’s Economic & Workforce Development Department was established in 2015. This division of SLCC offers short-term training for in-demand jobs to meet the needs of the community’s workforce.
