For Immediate Release
Seymour and
surrounding area residents will now have access to job searching and job
training closer to home with the Mobile Career Center bus from the Missouri
Career Center.
The $260,555
satellite-equipped bus has 13 computers, phone, Smart Board and an accessible
workstation for customers with disabilities. Equipped with internet access; the
Mobile Career Center will allow customers to access internet job search sites
and complete unemployment insurance reporting requirements for laid-off workers.
In addition, it is hoped the unit will eventually be able to provide other
job-related services such as on-line and classroom training, employer
organization meetings and Rapid Response services to plant closings or mass
layoffs.
The Missouri Career
Center serves clients in Greene, Christian, Dallas, Polk, Taney, Stone and
Webster counties from offices in Springfield and Branson. With the addition of
the Mobile Career Center, the staff can take its services directly to clients
with regularly scheduled stops in area towns. It will provide more opportunities
for both job seekers and employers to use the services without having to travel
regularly to Springfield or Branson.
The Mobile Career
Center will come to this location on the 2nd Thursday of each month to provide
services to the residents of Webster County and surrounding areas.
