Job Summary

HCTC WORKS! is a grant funded project awarded from the Department of Labor. HCTC WORKS! partners with our Hazard Community and Technical College students, high school students and employers in our region to place students in apprenticeship programs in high demand jobs.
As will all apprenticeship programs, a work-based learning component is the primary method for teaching the required competencies.
