ICYMI: September was a busy and impactful month for our Permian Basin team! Here’s a quick look at how we were involved in the community: 🏫 We inspired the next generation of skilled trades professionals by presenting career pathways and job opportunities to seniors at Coleman High School and Odessa High School. We're excited to see these students explore their futures in the trades! 💪 Our team participated in United Way's 'Week of Caring' by sorting and packing boxes of food. It was an honor to give back to the community through hands-on service. Stay tuned for more updates as we continue to make an impact in the Permian Basin! #SkillpointAlliance #permianbasin #careersuccess #electricaltraining #communityimpact #workforcedevelopment #professionaldevelopment
