New programs provide job training for today’s market.
Santa Clara County Supervisor Joe Simitian, right, checks out an electric vehicle at the Metropolitan Education District’s new EV program, designed to train students to address the rising need for service in that market. MetroEd has also launched a nursing science program to support the growing demand for healthcare workers in the county. In our ever-changing job market, there’s no such thing anymore as traditional pathways to success.
MetroED was prepared to take the leap, and just needed some financial support to do it. They deserve to be commended for assessing the needs of the community and the market and then addressing them. The outcome is good for the community, and absolutely great for the young people who hope to be employable, and who now will be employable once they complete these programs.
I’m delighted that the new programs launched this past August with significant demand by students enrolled in each program. I look forward to celebrating this milestone Oct. 27 with a ribbon-cutting on the MetroED campus in San Jose.
