MEETING
WEDNESDAY, OCTOBER 20 5:30pm. LOCATION TBD
Sandra Kearney, CEO of Human Power Solutions (HPS), will discuss the availability of grant money for Massachusetts shops using the Workforce Training Fund money. She will discuss the two types of grants available – General and Express – as well as the types of trainings available to the shops to help offset the costs of training employees. Human Power Solutions has partnered with I-CAR and VeriFacts Automotive and is in discussion with others to include those trainings in the application. HPS offers a comprehensive Safety Program and essential skills in Leadership, Communication and many other topics to help round out the skill sets of the entire organization and provide a dynamic culture to increase market share. To date, HPS has secured $88,000 in funding for Body & Paint Center of Hudson and $104,000 for Fuller Automotive in Auburn. HPS is currently working on three other shops in the area.
This meeting will also feature an update on the latest AASP/MA member benefits: Dental, health and credit card processing. (Representatives from these providers will be available to discuss these benefits.)
An up-to-date legislative report on the progress of AASP/MA’s two important bills will also be provided.
