Career training makes an
impact for a lifetime
Mobile works launched a new website, logo and tagline reflecting the initiatives of the Workforce Innovation and Opportunity Act (WIOA) signed into law by President Obama. WIOA mandates workforce boards be comprised largely of employers and business leaders in the community. Their goal is to implement training programs mirroring the needs of the local workforce and leading to career pathways for job seekers.
Although previous employment and training programs (CETA, JTPA, WIA) helped millions become employable, WIOA provides additional accountability and transparency of training programs. Likewise, funding dollars will be allocated based on job seekers finding employment and a career path in the area of train
 ing received.
In fact, WIOA's goal can be summed up in two words - Wendell Powell, a 2005 graduate of Williamson High School. After
high school, he enrolled at a four-year college and quickly discovered a typical college setting was not for him. He enjoyed working with his hands and fixing things.
At the urging of his parents, Powell learned of an amazing opportunity at the Alabama Aviation School. He enrolled and received training as an airframe and power plant technician with funding from
Mobile Works. Within two years Powell received an associates degree and became licensed by the FAA. Subsequently, he enrolled in MAE's apprenticeship program and received paid on -the job training. Fast forward ten years and this A & P mechanic has become a supervisor. "I love my job," Powell said. "I don't have a job; I have a career." Powell has since married and looks forward to a bright future professionally and personally. "I have my dream job and my dream wife. God is good."
