Pact Early Head Start Job Corps

It’s up to you entirely if you want to change your life around. And Job Corp (Waimānalo) will give you the opportunity and experience to do just that if you give them the chance. I used to be a student yr2015-16 I took the Culinary trade with Chef Tom. I learned so much from him and had many great experiences. I learned from all the staff in Job Corp. I cannot thank them enough for all the opportunity and skills they have presented to me. I’m humbled and grateful for all they have done for me. If you want to change your life around this is the one place you can do just that.

I want to start off with the trade bosses and the trade boss manager for working hard and care for their trainees that enter and leave their trade. Waimanalo Job Corps has been a great experience to me because of the cultures and people ive met. The recreation hall isn't much in there but the staffs work hard so that every trainees in there has fun and a great time. The dinning hall staffs cook great food and honestly i miss it lol. The security there does a great job at doing what they need to do and i love how they spend their time to communicate and talk stories with us trainees. I seen how the Residential Assistant their treat their residents aka trainees and it was great. Some wasnt but most was. The best part about the R.A is when they treat each and one of their trainees as their own children and i really appreciate and thank them for that. I appreciate my trade boss which is SECURITY for everything she has taught me, she is loving and caring and also strict at most things. But she cares all of them do. So if yall ever go there, go for whatever trade that makes you happy and do your absolute best in it. Mahalo !

Best decision of my life was not only go back to job corps,but wake up and realize this job corps is slightly better than Maui's one.Took landscaping was in there for almost a year and a half and was truly blessed,thankful let alone grateful.Especially for boss Calvin (landscape instructor) and all staff I gotten to know and learned a lot from.I wouldn't ever take it back I wish I was there longer for many reasons but, glad of what I did there and what I accomplished there. It's only a place for people who are serious in wanting to learn a trade, get your certifications and all that but mostly building your career and future. I see myself raving good stuff about them and helping them in the future. And so I leave with you with this "To experience the full wonderful joyous experience of job corps is to be along for the full ride." ALOHA!!!!

This is where you'll meet people from around the world. Unlike other corps, this is the place to get to get know other culture and their traditions that you didn't even know when growing up. The staff were very professional and treat you like a family even when you're done with the program. I loved it here, and if i were to go back in time and relive it all over i would.(and adjust a few things)🤪😂
