Over 100 Local Businesses Strong with Solid Partnerships with Numerous Area Employers
During the senior year, our students have the opportunity to take advantage of learning and earning in the real world, on the job, with real professionals. Through our Job Placement program, we assist our students in securing apprenticeships, internships and employment in a position that requires a certain level of skill attainment in a job related to their program of study. If students meet the requirements, they work during school time, earn a lab grade, and get paid to gain on-the-job training. What better way to be prepared for life after graduation and to launch a career!
Please contact Mrs. Tripney (330) 896-8278 or ltripney@plcc.edu with any questions or to obtain the necessary paperwork.
