Success Stories
"The Skills for Success program is a really valuable resource for people looking to start a new career. The program exceeded my expectations, it prepared me. After the completion of the course, I waited about a week, walked into the store and after 30 minutes, I was hired. If it wasn’t for the Skills for Success program, I don’t know what direction I would be taking my life…meaningless job, after meaningless job. This program gave me a job I look forward to every day and that I can see a future in."
— Will Whatley | FRESH MARKET REGIONAL TEAM MEMBER, MEAT CUTTER
“What I liked about the program the most is that it helps airport compliance. By taking this course, I am saving the airport cost of hiring operators to fill in holes and address drainage issues we may have. We are now able to save money and help with airport revenue.”
— Anthony Tarver | NORTHEAST REGIONAL AIRPORT MANAGER, SKID STEER
“It was convenient, I didn’t have to miss a long period of work, didn’t have to leave our crew shorthanded, and we were in and out in a week. It was a big help in obtaining a CDL. Without a CDL we would have a hard time getting in and out of jobs with equipment we need. It has benefitted me tremendously; I have received a pay increase and a little bit of a promotion. I am thankful for the opportunity to not have to pay out of pocket and getting the new CDL helps me in this job and future jobs I may acquire.”
— River Day | SOUTHEAST GAS, CDL
“Courses like this are perfect if you are interested in moving into pieces of equipment because if you spent all your time on one piece of equipment you haven’t had time to train on other pieces of equipment. Training like this helps you get seat time on other pieces of equipment. Being able to offer training programs like this will help advance your career.”
— Darryen Stevenson | TALENT MANAGEMENT DEVELOPMENT SPECIALIST, EXCAVATOR
“It was always the goal to get a CDL. Before getting my CDL I was operating smaller equipment, but after getting my CDL and skid steer training I was able to operate larger equipment like a bulldozer and pull a trailer of equipment and then operate that equipment. My employer trusts me and it’s opened additional doors of opportunity.”
