101 job-certified by Latte Academy

Sixty students earned their professional certificates in Bookkeeping, Quickbooks, Office Manager, Hospitality START, and Front Desk Representative at the Latte Training Academy graduation Wednesday evening. Instructors Larry Lee, Jocelyn Doreza, Jill Arenovski, Kanae Quinn, and Jim Arenovski made the presentations. Latte awarded another 36 students certificates in allied health programs earlier in the day. Tuition is underwritten with CW fees, which I increased last year in the Northern Mariana Islands Economic Expansion Act, U.S. Public Law 115-53. The training program itself started with seed money I got for Island Training Solutions years ago. Graduates came from all walks of life, younger and older, already working or looking for jobs or job advancement. They put in months of work to improve their lives. What an inspiration!
