How We Celebrate Our Graduates

When graduates of our Center for Employment Training (CET) receive a job offer, they’re invited back to our training headquarters, at the Conway Center, to ring a bell that’s hung outside of the classrooms. When they do, the classrooms and nearby offices empty as students and instructors fill the hallways to congratulate them. For many of them it’s been a long, demanding journey, and this is their moment to celebrate all of their hard work. Watch the video here to see how we support and honor our students at the CET.
