That's today's Appalachian Wireless. Big Sandy Community and Technical College was awarded a $3.5 million power grant from the Appalachian Regional Commission. The grant will help create a diverse economic future in coal-impacted communities in eastern Kentucky. In order to do that, we are looking at ways that we can contribute and be a part of the 21st century economy. And those are jobs that are in some ways high-tech. They're high-wage. Some can be performed remotely. The grant was the largest of the 28 awards announced last Thursday. Hazard Community and Technical College in southeast Kentucky Community and Technical College will join Big Sandy to create digital hubs for fast-track training for high-speed jobs. Companies are looking for some of the basic foundational elements of showing up for work on time and work ethic. We have those types of things. So if we can build on that and equip our students and our citizens with these types of skills, we feel like we can transform the economy in eastern Kentucky. Big Sandy, in partnership with SOAR and the Eastern Kentucky Concentrated Employment Program, created the Eastern Kentucky Coal County Transformation Project as a way to strengthen digital innovation and entrepreneurship across a 16-county region in eastern Kentucky. The program will establish educational programs that develop workforce skills in cybersecurity, medical coding, and advanced manufacturing. As much as the curriculum is 21st century, the approach is 21st century because you have an employer that is working with us to tell us exactly what they need for the students to compete for the jobs that they have. The project will serve 300 trainees and improve operations of 30 existing businesses. The grant will last for three years. Reporting in Prestonsburg for EKB News, I'm Shelby Steele. Thank you.
