Career in a Year says Rick Scott

February 10th, 2016 by Mike Vasilinda

Governor Rick Scott is pushing for 20 million dollars to better fund technical training in Florida. He brought several dozen technical students to the Capitol to help him make his point. Scott recognized Taylor County Technical Student Michael Williams who is about to complete his training.

“There was a young guy just 19 years old who finished the program about two weeks ago, went to work his first job and is making seventy dollars an hour” said Williams, drawing applause from the Governor.

“We have a proposal for twenty million dollars in this years budget. It’s going to help all of our technical schools around our state make sure their individuals get jobs” says Scott.

Scott calls the program “Career in a Year.” He hopes it will attract companies to come to Florida by providing employment ready technical students.
