Meeting the Surge in Demand
The pivot to online programming was forced on all of us this March. At Opportunity Junction, this meant quickly developing the infrastructure to deliver training, career counseling, and employer introductions over the Internet. We're committed to studying the outcomes of these involuntary experiments.
September 2020 Featured Alumni: Gwen Moore
I am really happy with what I do now ... and I am making more than I ever thought I could!
In 2011, just before her 8th anniversary working as a school bus operator and trainer
for First Student in Richmond, Gwenette Moore suffered an injury that took her out of work.
Gwen was eager to get a new job, but realized she needed to update her skills to get into the administrative field.
She enrolled in Opportunity Junction's Administrative Careers Training program.
