TRAINING SERVICES
We believe in the power of work. We have witnessed its power to transform lives. Work helps build self-confidence, friendship, creativity, empowerment, trust, and independence.
The true benefit of work is much more than a steady paycheck. In truth, each moment of purposeful work contributes to a greater sense of self and a more fulfilled life.
Goodwill Industries of Upstate/Midlands South Carolina fulfills its mission of helping people achieve their full potential through the dignity and power of work by providing job training and career services. Last year, Goodwill served 23,376 people and placed 4,372 people into full-time employment, giving them an opportunity to become self-sufficient citizens in the community.
Career Training opportunities include hands-on work experience and/or curriculum in the following programs. Participants may be eligible for monetary incentives upon achieving established training program milestones.
