Northern Nevada Literacy Council, in partnership with JOIN, Inc. has received funding to implement the “Learn and Earn” project for young adults, ages 18-24, who wish to pursue free career training for jobs throughout Washoe County.
Training will be free and focus on various sectors including technology, manufacturing, construction, medical technology, information technology, graphic design, trucking, and office administration.
Participants need to be at least 18 to enroll, live in an economically-challenged household, and have completed high school or be enrolled through NNCL for a GED or adult diploma. JOIN’s new “Learn and Earn” Program Coordinator, Reggie Willis, is accepting applications and employer placements now. He can be reached in JOIN’s Reno office: 775-785-6106, ext. 215 or by e-mail: rwillis@join.org.
