Congrats to Willis Hundley on being the first confirmed graduate of the STAND Program from WVU Parkersburg!!

Hundley is a member of the WV Laborers and plans to continue his education in the WVU-P Supervisory Management Program.

This is exactly why STAND was created: to provide a pathway and training for WV construction workers to become leaders on the jobsite.

STAND is a state-funded program that gives Building Trades apprentices the opportunity to pursue an associate degree from a WV community & technical college TUITION-FREE!

“Programs like STAND open doors for the working class who may not otherwise have the chance to pursue higher education while building their careers in construction,” said Hundley.

“It definitely made it more financially secure. That was the big win for me, was the financial security. Being able to get an associate’s degree without all the out-of-pocket costs.”

For more information on the STAND program log on to: www.cfWV.com/STAND
