SkillUp Success Stories

From SkillUP to full-time college student

3/5/2020

​A potential participant showed interest in ECC’s Microsoft Office Suite program. Upon completion of the assessment, it was clear this participant had the desire to succeed but there were barriers holding her back from success. She was enrolled in the program and a significant amount of time was spent identifying resources that could help her and address some severe test anxiety issues. This participant was also in a domestic violence situation, so a local counselor intervened to assist her in gaining the skills and confidence needed to remove herself from the situation. We worked with her to build a resume so she could find a job that supported her and her children. The participant completed one certification and decided to enroll in college full time. She is now working on an Associate’s Degree in business.
