Bluegrass KY Career Center partners with Carl D. Perkins Job Corps Center

This week the Bluegrass Kentucky Career Center (BKYCC) partnered with Carl D. Perkins Job Corps Center (CDPJCC) to promote and provide information about the Job Corps program. Stemming from recent outreach efforts conducted by CDPJCC Admissions Counselor, Cynthia Bohon and Business Community Liaison, Tiffany Fannin we were able to provide an informational session to the staff at Bluegrass KY Career Center. In return, BKYCC staff Sarah Rowlett compiled an informational video including power point slides, and posted to their social media page to inform the Bluegrass community about the benefits of the Job Corps program.
