Breaking news for C3comes in the form of a grant from the Houston-Galveston Area Board (H-GAC). The H-GAC focuses on assisting companies in attracting, training, and retaining workers. They felt that the C3 mission of strengthening a safe, skilled, and sustainable workforce was something their grant money could truly help push forward.
Those who have attended C3’s Annual Golf Classic can attest to the fun networking opportunity the event offers, but what attendees may not be aware of is that all funds raised go back into operational functions at C3. The majority of proceeds are poured back into C3’s Craft Training Endorsement Program, which allows C3 to provide consultation services and offer craft training endorsements at no additional costs to C3 Accredited Employers.
