McLeod Health To Host New Trades Program

/in , , /by

McLeod Health will play host to a new apprenticeship program, run by an education nonprofit, that will show students the jobs available at hospitals beyond just doctors and nurses.

The apprenticeships, set to begin in spring semester 2024, will be a partnership with local school districts to give high school students real-world experience at the hospital system in their chosen trade. The program brings together organizations in South Carolina and beyond that are interested in education and it will serve as a test-run of the educational model.

Power:Ed is a philanthropy of South Carolina Student Loan that gives grants to nonprofits, colleges and local organizations to break down educational barriers and prepare students for their life with the skills they need to succeed, according to its website.
