JUST FYI from the My Hub 'Kirkwood News' Feature:
(Oct. 21, 2020)–Kirkwood Community College has been awarded a total of $350,000 in two grants from Iowa Workforce Development (IWD) to support new apprenticeship and training programs aimed at addressing the negative economic impact of COVID-19. The programs will be targeted toward Iowans who have been adversely affected by the virus.
Of the two awards, the largest was the Coronavirus Relief Registered Apprenticeship Incentive Grant, for which the college received $250,000. The funds will be used to develop new registered apprenticeship programs (RAPs) with three local employers including:
Suburban Lumber Company for a Heavy Truck Driver RAP,
Wendling Quarries Inc. for a Diesel Mechanic RAP,
Davis Heating for a HVAC Installer RAP.
Q: Do these grants relate to the gender pay gap in some way? (Had to ask!!! ;))
