RWE, developer of the Stargazer Solar Project, has announced a $40,000 donation to the Seneca Highlands Career and Technical Center to fund the creation of a new EMT training certification program. The program will establish a pathway to careers for local high school students and address the need for enhanced EMS services in the area.
In addition to supporting EMT instruction by a qualified instructor, the donation will also fund a hands-on ambulance training simulator, giving students on opportunity to experience a real-world work environment they will encounter on the job and better prepare them to respond in emergency situations.
Based on current enrollment in the Seneca Highlands Career and Technical Center homeland security/public safety program, five to eight students are expected to complete the 160-hour training course to achieve EMT certifications each year.
Please read our complete Stargazer donation press release for more information.
