Miami Job Corps Center

"I’ve got my high school diploma and trade from here and learned a valuable lesson also very good school"

"I loved the diverse opportunities they give They best thing that ever happened to me!!!!"

"I'm going there sometime next month I can't wait already know what I want to do there"

"I graduated class 1997 in Albuquerque, got my GED, CA and a great experience. My daughter drop out in 10 grade and she started few weeks ago, she's very excited, her future has better vision."

"I received my GED and an Accounting Clerk Certificate from Miami Job Corps about 12 years ago, which then seemed unfeasible after dropping out of high school 2 month into 9th grade, barely spoke English, coming out of foster care, victim of domestic violence, a single mother of 4, dead end job, struggling on welfare, a stereotypical young black woman with no future prospect. I had almost given up hope in making anything out of my life, nevertheless in becoming successful until I registered in Miami Job Corps. Needless to say, it turned out to be one of the best decisions I’ve made in my life. After graduating, they helped me register with the Associate In science Paralegal studies at Miami Dade College and this month I graduated from Florida International University with a Bachelor in International Relations. Before Job corps, I didn’t think it would be possible for me to go to college specially when I was completing their application and was embarrassed to put 8th grade as the last grade completed. They’ve gave me the guidance and confidence I needed to succeed and now my life is completely the opposite from then. I truly feel that anything is possible even grad or law school! They thought me that the glass is not half full nor half empty, but refillable with whatever I want if I’m determine. Thank you Job Corps!!!!!"
