Are you a Maryland resident currently seeking employment? Boost your job readiness with Grow Home’s intensive Workforce Development training events!

Join us for one or both days of training. NOTE: Forklift training and certification is only available on Day 1.

DAY 1 – Wed, Jan 29: Complete the training and certification to become a forklift operator

DAY 2 – Thurs, Jan 30: Build a successful, professional resume

BOTH DAYS include Employment Assistance to help you register for SNAP benefits, connect with current job opportunities that are a good fit for you, and schedule next steps on your job-seeking journey with Grow Home’s dedicated staff members.

If you attend both days of training, you can choose to attend the Employment Assistance block of training on one or both days (the content will be the same, but you may appreciate the extra on-site time to work on your benefits registration and resume).
