Hopfame

Hopfame HOPFAME is a employer-led, work-and-learn industrial maintenance program partnered with Hopkinsville Community College. Come be our first in a new sector!

Students attend HCC while working for a local, sponsoring company. HCC Skills2Work programs are specifically for students who want to work and go to school at the same time. Employers who take on students prioritize school and know their involvement is an investment in the community as a whole. Registered Apprenticeship is a work-and-learn model where students are connected with local employers in

their chosen field. Employers build their customized apprenticeship program with HCC's apprenticeship coordinator, then pair the new apprentice with an expert in their company as a mentor. Currently HCC has apprenticeships in CMM, Agriculture Business, and Diesel Technology; however we are expanding into healthcare, business, construction, and much more. HOPFAME is an apprenticeship-model, cohort-style program where local companies take on students in HCC's industrial maintenance program. Students learn on-the-job and in the classroom, directing applying their new skills in real time. Youth Workforce Connections is a grant-funded program that helps 18-24 year-old students gain experience to bolster their resume OR take a class at HCC for little or no charge. Employers have 500 hours of free help when they participate and agree to take on a YWC student.
