Job Corps is a U.S. Department of Labor program that offers disadvantaged youth between the ages of 16-24 an opportunity to get a high school diploma or GED while they develop the skills needed to succeed in a variety of careers. Students earn while they learn a trade, and then receive assistance in finding a job after completing the program.

Roadway developed the tractor-trailer driving-training program to prepare Job Corps students for jobs in the trucking industry. We also provided a truck technician program curriculum in conjunction with the United Auto Workers-Labor Employment and Training Corporation.
