Workshops Will Outline Casino Employment

CCAC and the Northside Leadership Conference are sponsoring a series of 12 free workshops that will help people land jobs with Pittsburgh’s new casino, which is set to open in May of 2009. The workshops will cover the types of jobs that are available, the qualifications needed, the state work credentials required, background checks and the resources needed to help individuals gain employment. There will not be any job applications accepted at the workshops. They are simply informational sessions providing resources to help ensure future employment. The first session is Tuesday, Feb. 26th at the YMCA of Homewood from 6 to 9 pm.
