Dedicating more than eight weeks, and countless hours of classroom and independent learning, coaching sessions, mock interviews and more deserves celebration for our immersive program participants!
During graduation ceremonies held at the Goodwill Opportunity Campus, participant graduates gather with their friends, families, instructors, career navigators, employer engagement team members and more to celebrate this tremendous achievement and the opportunities that lie ahead. Goodwill’s immersive job training programs in IT, banking, and construction and trades equip our graduates with the skills, confidence and support they need to take the next step toward the life they want to achieve.
Featured in this video is BankWork$ program graduate, Kenya Cunningham, a Customer Banking Relationship Specialist with Bank OZK who delivered remarks during her graduation ceremony. “$14,584 is the poverty level for one person, and I was below that,” she said. “Goodwill is the place where you can turn your life around in a few weeks. You can go from, like myself, below poverty level to now middle-class income.”
We can't wait to see the amazing things our graduates will accomplish next on their pathway to prosperity.
