Jobs Newly elected Chairman, Joey Durel, left no doubt that job development is high on his agenda during his acceptance speech at the 65th annual banquet last month. Durel told the audience of 1,000 that he is involved in the Chamber because he wants his children and grandchildren to have opportunities for employment. The annual career awareness program is scheduled for February 2 of next year. Businesses that participate expose students to career possibilities and demonstrate a tangible commitment to improving the workforce. Workforce Preparedness Committee Chairman Sandi Chalmers urges members to be involved.
Business owners can show students the relevancy of what they study in school.
