2024年1月25日 - 10:30PM
Lincoln Educational Services Corporation (NASDAQ:
LINC), a national leader in specialized technical training
for more than 75 years, has announced the appointment of an
organizational leader to an important statewide labor initiative.
Cory Hughes, President of Lincoln Tech’s Columbia, MD campus, has
been selected to join the Maryland Governor’s Workforce Development
Board (GWDB), thanks to his service to area students and employers
since 1987.
Hughes has served in several capacities at Lincoln Tech, first
from 1999 to 2002 and then from 2015 through to his current role
today. Overall, he has enjoyed more than 35 years as an educator
and student advocate. As a Board member, he will work toward
meeting the challenges facing employers across the state in
identifying, hiring, and retaining talent for their teams.
Comprised of college presidents, elected officials, business
leaders, and labor representatives, along with Governor Wes Moore
and several state Cabinet secretaries, the Board’s mission is to
assist businesses in all industries by developing a skilled,
trained workforce and ensuring a steady pipeline of job candidates
for the roles employers need to fill.
“It was certainly an honor to be selected for this prestigious
initiative, and I’m looking forward to helping develop the
strongest workforce possible in our state,” Hughes says. “I’m
grateful to Governor Moore for the opportunity, and to my
co-workers at Lincoln Tech for their support and guidance
throughout the process of my nomination and selection.”
“Cory Hughes sets an example that all of us at Lincoln can
strive to meet,” says Scott Shaw, Lincoln Tech’s President and CEO.
“His dedication to the success of the students training at his
campus, and to meeting the employment needs of the campus’ hiring
partners, will be an incredible asset to the GWDB, and to the
entire state of Maryland as its workforce is built to answer the
call of employers who need specialized skills in their job
candidates.”
The GWDB combines the efforts of education, employment and
training professionals as they work toward forming a well-trained
and prepared workforce that meets the needs of Maryland employers
today and in the future. Part of its mission is to make sure
workers have access to the resources they need in the development
of skills that will help them succeed in a wide range of
industries.
Under Hughes’ leadership, Lincoln Tech’s Columbia campus
provides career training for the Automotive, HVAC, Electrical,
Welding, Medical Assisting and Culinary Arts industries. These
fields are projected to add more than 100,000 positions statewide
by 2030*. Last year four out of five graduates from the campus were
hired for positions in their field after graduating**.
*Career growth projections can be found at onetonline.org for
the years 2020-2030 (state-specific) and 2022-2032 (national) and
are current as of January 22, 2024.
