ConneXions is a one or two year program designed to prepare students for entry-level employment. This program collaborates with Cleveland County Schools and Cleveland Community College. ConneXions focuses on developing entry level work skills through different courses offered each semester. Courses offered include General Maintenance, Customer Service, Employee Development I, and Employee Development II. We have added a Child Day Care class to prepare students to work in a day care setting.
