Samuel Shemwell an ACSA graduate is now the IT POC of Shriver Job Corps. Originally from Illinois, Sam transferred from Paul Simon Chicago Job Corps after completing his first trade of Computer Tech. At the start of the pandemic, Sam was working a Work-Based Learning position at Quiet Logistics in Devens and decided to stay local unlike most of the students in March of 2020. He continued to work and completed ACSA virtually in the summer of 2021. This plan eventually landed him a full time permanent placement at QL. This past summer he learned of the opening at Shriver of which he was qualified for and decided it may be a better position for him. He applied and, in no time achieved the position! So far he has enjoyed the work and especially being so familiar with most of the staff, it made the transition a bit easier. Having been a student here at Shriver before, Sam relates to the students with ease as students from Computer Tech and ACSA work closely with Sam at times when on Help Desk for Work-Based Learning.
