Training and Workforce Options to Host Financial Industry Forum

SPRINGFIELD — Training and Workforce Options (TWO), a partnership between Holyoke Community College and Springfield Technical Community College (STCC), will host an employer-engagement forum focused on the financial-services industry on Thursday, May 3 from 8 to 10 a.m. at STCC’s Scibelli Hall, Rooms 701 and 702.

The forum will provide financial professionals with information on workforce-development training opportunities and related services offered by experienced trainers from HCC and STCC.
