Congratulations Kathy Fetch of Green River, Jessica Pauli-Padilla of Cheyenne, and Stephanie Paulsen of Sinclair, Wyoming!

Kathy, Jessica and Stephanie recently graduated from the Department of Labor’s Apprenticeship Program, coordinated by WCAA. We greatly appreciate Kathy, Jessica and Stephanie’s efforts toward raising the level of quality in early child care, by completing the two year program, which involves 16 credit hours of college courses, while working full time as childcare providers. Kathy and Stephanie also graduated with honors.

Providers interested in the apprenticeship program, classes start in August at Casper, Laramie County, Northwest, and Sheridan Community Colleges. Northwest and Casper Community Colleges offer on-line courses. For more information contact Mike Broad, Career Development Coordinator at 1.800.400.3999.
