Education and Training for JHH Employees
The workforce development programs at Hopkins serve three purposes:
- Provide incumbents with the skills and knowledge to move into jobs with higher wages
- Provide opportunities for new entrants into the workforce, even for some with a limited work history
- Encourage youth to choose health care as a career and provide them with development opportunities
Skills Training & Career Advancement
Through our Skills Enhancement Program, we offer a broad range of refresher courses from GED and college preparation to knowledge in medical terminology and computer basics. Many of our programs are supported through partnership with local government, community-based organizations and community colleges.
Our programs, such as STEP and Project LINC, support current employees who may be preparing for career advancement opportunities in nursing and other skilled-health occupations.
