A free one-hour class focused upon job opportunities in the field of logistics will be take place at Maysville Community and Technical College.
As explained by Barb Campbell with MCTC and Jeremy Faulkner with the Kentucky Career Center, careers in logistics are "more than driving a truck."
"We want to get people interested in this field ... there are opportunities for advancement," said Faulkner.
Job opportunities in the logistics field include production level jobs, sales jobs, information technology (IT), customer service, operating forklifts and more, Faulkner said. It was also noted job opportunities are available for all education levels and opportunities for women are expanding.
Currently two regional employers have openings and a third company will have future openings.
The information session will provide attendees the opportunity to submit an application and resume to the employers, which include Family Dollar in Rowan County, Reliable Transportation Solutions in Georgetown, Ohio and Crounse Corporation in Maysville.
The information session will be held Thursday, Jan. 22 from noon to 1 p.m. at MCTC, Maysville Campus. Lunch will be provided. Participants are asked to pre-register by calling 606-759-7141 ext. 66120 or by email to: rachel.foley@kctcs.edu
