Hire

We are selective about who we enroll in training, offer rigorous instruction, and support graduates and local businesses to ensure we make a lasting job match.

QUALIFIED WORKERS

BWI’s programs are highly competitive. We choose individuals who demonstrate outstanding motivation, commitment, and financial need. By the end of a training cycle, graduates have a firm grasp of the basics of their chosen industry and have hands-on experience in real work environments. They’re trained, credentialed, and ready to work. That’s why a BWI graduate is a great addition to your business.

Looking to hire in a field we aren’t currently training for? Check out our Employer Customized Training, which allows you to help design a BWI training specifically tailored to your business.
