Mitchell Partners With San Diego County Office of Education to Broaden Youth Career Opportunities
Collision Repair Course at San Diego City College Offers a Gateway to Improved Employment Prospects for Area Youth
(firmenpresse) - SAN DIEGO, CA -- (Marketwire) -- 02/20/12 -- Mitchell, a leading provider of technology, connectivity and information solutions to the Property & Casualty claims and Collision Repair industries, today announced another successful community partnership, with the San Diego County Office of Education's Work Readiness Program. Mitchell is funding a program at San Diego City College, which introduces area youth to career opportunities in the industry. In this endeavor, the Company proudly continues nearly a decade of support of the local program, as part of its ongoing community outreach initiatives.
"Mitchell's long-standing support for this type of career gateway for our students is invaluable," said Ed Rulenz, Project Facilitator and Instructor for San Diego County's Office of Education's Work Readiness Program. "Challenging economic circumstances make partnerships such as this one absolutely essential, and through Mitchell's financial support, on-site collision repair facility visits, and provision of tool kits for students, we are able to empower such deserving young people to broaden their career opportunities and better their futures."
The collision repair class supported by Mitchell at San Diego City College introduces students to basic vehicle paint preparatory techniques. The course is overwhelmingly popular, with a typical 150 person wait list. Students can go on to more advanced collision repair training at the school, and Mitchell also aids in internships and job placement at local repair shops.
"It is tremendously gratifying and humbling to see how our partnership with San Diego City College has presented exciting collision repair career opportunities for local students, and we look forward to continuing to work together to encourage and support young people in our own backyard," said Jack Farnan, Mitchell's Senior Vice President of Human Resources. "For Mitchell, active involvement in our community is a personal endeavor for our team members and speaks to the integrity we try very hard to bring to every aspect of our business. We are proud to make more career opportunities a reality for more people and view partnerships such as this one as an opportunity for us to continually strengthen our community."
