Kelvin was a veteran who lost his employment and decided to change career paths and get his CDL.
He was enrolled in the WIOA program in the Upstate. He entered the program in search of a career path in the trucking industry to have financial stability and growth.
He stated that, “I wanted a career change, so I would never be in this unsure of a position again.” He worked closely with his Talent Development Specialist (TDS) to identify barriers, prioritize needs, and strategize a way to move forward. He then completed the necessary steps to enroll in a local school for CDL training.
Kelvin showed a constant sense of responsibility, commitment, and a desire to improve during his participation in the WIOA program. He was thankful for all the assistance he received and now has full time employment in his field.
