College Participates in Job Development Group to Share Information and Resources

 

Victor Valley College works closely with local employers to provide students with industry-specific employment, and holds an annual fall career exposition that provides on-the-spot hiring opportunities for students with local employers.  In addition to these on-campus events, Job Placement Specialists participate in a regional Job Development Group consisting of 25-30 agencies, programs and departments such as:

  • Regional Occupational Programs
  • Chambers of Commerce
  • Jobs and Employment Services Department,
  • One-Stop Center
  • Head Start
  • Apprenticeship programs

The Employment Development Department has taken the lead in organizing the meetings and supporting the coalition.  The group meets once a month in rotating geographic locations to share employment information and resources that will benefit local residents.

For more information, contact Sheree Caldwell, Job Placement Specialist, at scaldwell@victor.cc.ca.us or 760-245-4271 x2244 or Pat Montgomery at 760-245-4271 x2265.
