Interested individuals must be at least 18 years old and have been impacted by the COVID-19 pandemic. These courses are geared toward people seeking occupational skills for a career in the high-demand industries of manufacturing, information technology and health care, officials said.<\/p>\n<p><span class=\"s1\"><span class=\"s2\"><!--more--><\/span><\/span>SUNY Adirondack offered WRAP Reimagine-funded courses in 2022, in health care and information technology-related fields.<span class=\"Apple-converted-space\">\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p>\u201cSeeing participants successfully work toward their professional goals through the WRAP grant is exciting. The college is helping individuals improve their lives and developing a skilled workforce to meet the needs of regional employers,\u201d Prylo said.<\/p>\n<p>The bootcamp is offered in person at SUNY Adirondack\u2019s Saratoga Center and teaches participants a strong foundation in basic math applications and conversions, measurement and scientific notation skills, an introduction to AC and DC currents, safety protocol, including PPE and LOTO certification, an introduction to PLC equipment and relay communications, hand tool use, and use of continuous improvement models used in modern manufacturing environments including Lean and Six Sigma.<\/p>\n<p>The course is held from 6-9 p.m. Tuesday and Thursdays through Dec. 12 at SUNY Adirondack Saratoga, 696 Route 9 in Wilton.<\/p>\n<p>In Python for Data Analytics, the interactive program is offered virtually and teaches students fundamental programming concepts using Python as a tool for collecting, analyzing and visualizing data. The class meets online twice a week in three-hour sessions.<\/p>\n<p>Terri Squire of Monroe County was among participants in the first Python for Data Analytics program.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cLearning to code by yourself can be daunting,\u201d Squire said. \u201cWRAP helped me get over that hurdle. The program was really well done.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>In the Sterile Processing Technician course, Adirondack partners with Saratoga Hospital to offer free grant-funded training. The program, using content from Condensed Curriculum International (CCI), is offered at SUNY Adirondack Saratoga and Saratoga Hospital, and teaches participants hands-on aspects of processing equipment to ensure safe medical care. The class meets twice a week in three-and-a-half-hour sessions. Nearly every student in the last cohort secured new employment at the end of the course.<span class=\"Apple-converted-space\">\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p>To learn more about WRAP Reimagine Grant,<span class=\"Apple-converted-space\">\u00a0 <\/span>visit www.sunyacc.edu\/great-futures-high-demand-careers-start-here.
