Former student Craig Williams, from Norfolk, Virginia took the time out of his busy truck route to visit former instructors at the Muhlenberg Job Corps Center. Williams was enrolled at the program from June 2013 until February 2014 and successfully completed the Heavy Equipment Operator and Heavy Truck Driving (CDL-Class B) courses. He not only came to the Center to visit the instructors but to also proudly show off his truck to the students currently in training. Williams is leasing his truck and driving for Prime Trucking, Inc. By leasing his truck, it sent a huge message to the current students of how Williams is learning how to run his own trucking business by being reliable for all of the truck expenses.
