Chamber Members Visit Eden Area Regional Occupational Program | |
|
Recently, several members of the Castro Valley/Eden Area Chamber of Commerce visited the main campus of the EAROP in Hayward. EAROP provides career training to high school students in auto repair, construction, culinary arts, dental and medical assisting, first responders, cyber security and many more areas. It’s an extraordinary program. The goal of the visit was to familiarize Chamber members with the outstanding training that is provided to students and to increase their many ongoing contacts with businesses and trade groups.
Pictured are (l to r) Dan Willits, Gary Howard, Todd Anglin, Gary Slate (executive director of the Chamber), Nimone Li-Hardisty, Randy Vanderbilt, Yon Hardisty, Blaine Torpey (Superintendent of EAROP), and Abraham Mendoza (of EAROP).
