There is officially a new career training program in McKeesport, and its board members say people who sign-up will “rapidly” learn a trade and be able to compete in the skilled-labor workforce.

Leaders of New Century Careers were joined Thursday by Mon Valley residents, area elected officials and prospective students for a ribbon-cutting ceremony at The Tube City Center for Business and Innovation.

NCC is a South Side-based nonprofit workforce development organization with a dual client mission to support pre-employment and incumbent manufacturing workers as well as their current or future employers. NCC aims to help each set of clients advance economically through continuous education and training, according to NCC president Paul Anselmo.

At its McKeesport location, located on the second floor of the former Daily News Building, NCC will host the MANUFACTURING 2000 (M2K) Machinist Training Program.
