It is great to see the ongoing success of Right Track’s program over the years! I enrolled in the program back in 2016 and acquired substantial knowledge in professionalism and career development. #RightTrack #professionaldevelopment #careerdevelopment #network

As the Career College Transition Fair comes up April 17 at Seymour High School, we are introducing you to the participants. Jackson County REMC In 1935, two important events led to the founding of Jackson County REMC. The state legislature passed the Indiana REMC Act, and on May 11, the U.S. Congress passed the bill establishing the Rural Electrification Administration, which became part of the Rural Utilities Service in 1994. The first public meeting to organize an REMC in Jackson County was held on Nov. 5, 1936. The first REA loan to Jackson County REMC was approved Sept. 22, 1937, for $100,000. The first pole was set Feb. 12, 1938. Actual connection of electricity to homes began on Tuesday, June 28, 1938. During 1939 and 1940, it was agreed to enlarge the service area to include parts of adjacent counties. Today, Jackson County REMC is a member-owned rural electric cooperative headquartered in Brownstown that serves 10 counties. There are 20,206 members served by 24,200 active meters in place on 2,944 miles of line, an average of 8.4 meters per mile. It's a nonprofit cooperative, meaning no stock is owned, there are no dividends declared and any excess of revenue over expenses (margins) is treated as capital contributed by each member in proportion to the amount of electricity purchased.

Advice to new Pepperdine grads: Creatively and intentionally develop purpose, service, and leadership in your work. It's possible to be a self-centered worker in the nonprofit sector, just as much as it's possible to be an accountant or marketing exec living out selfless service. Don't let assumptions about your industry or seniority limit your intentional cultivation and application of core values and character. What would you add? 💙🧡 🌊

Graduates, it's that time of year again! As you embark on this next chapter of your life, I want to share some advice that has helped me tremendously: Dream big. With dreams, all things are possible. Remember to always keep your goals in sight and work hard towards them. Best of luck on your future endeavors! #DreamBig #GraduationAdvice

😁 Helped an older gentleman recently find a new role. He was concerned that his age would be a deciding factor. Upon accepting the role, the clients feedback was exceptional. They'd remarked how this chap had shown a genuine willingness to pass on his experience to apprentices and new employees. How this would be ideal for them as they have a real skills gap at their manufacturing site. There are occasions where clients wouldn't like to admit it, but they may overlook certain applicants based on age. For me, I always make time to speak with engineers who may be close to retirement, as you can learn so much from these people. They usually know a lot about the good and bad companies in the area and work arounds to machinery that the newer generation may not have contemplated. They're a genuine wealth of knowledge 🤓 Before you overlook the next applicant who may be a bit older than others, please consider what value that knowledge can bring! Especially in an engineering industry with massive skills shortages ❗️

I can say from experience that AAP is a great place to work as a young journalist.
