PARSIPPANY, NJ \u2013 November 25, 2024, Nov. 25, 2024 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) — Lincoln Educational Services Corporation (NASDAQ: LINC), a national leader in specialized technical training for more than 75 years, announces the graduation of eight new technicians from its specialized Johnson Controls International (JCI) Academy program at the Denver, CO campus. This is the first group to graduate from the Denver location; the JCI Academy has also operated at Lincoln\u2019s Columbia, MD campus since the Fall of 2022.<\/p>\n

Since the inception of Lincoln Tech\u2019s partnership with JCI in 2018, more than 500 students have graduated from Lincoln schools and gone straight to work at JCI locations across the country.<\/p>\n

\u201cOur partnership with Johnson Controls enables us to broaden our innovative training programs, providing graduates with hands-on experience and direct pathways to careers that align with market needs,\u201d says Scott Shaw, Lincoln Tech\u2019s President and CEO. \u201cWe are proud to contribute to building a future-ready talent pool that ensures the efficient and sustainable operation of our building systems.\u201d<\/p>\n

The graduating class celebrated its milestone on Friday, November 15th<\/sup> at the Denver campus \u2013 when the ribbon was also officially cut on the Johnson Controls Academy classroom. The graduates \u2013 six of whom had previously attended Lincoln Tech, along with two current JCI employee who were advancing their skill sets \u2013 will move into positions at JCI branches in Alaska, Illinois, Kansas, Pennsylvania, Tennessee, Texas and Utah.

Marcus Biart, a graduate of the Electrical and Electronic Systems Technology program at Lincoln Tech\u2019s Mahwah campus, enrolled in the JCI Academy to further his training and will go on to a position at JCI\u2019s Fort Worth, TX location. \u201cI\u2019ve never experienced anything like this before,\u201d he told his fellow graduates when speaking at Friday\u2019s ceremony. \u201cJCI\u2019s instructors were willing to teach me, and I was eager to learn. Thank you for giving a young man like me a chance.\u201d<\/p>\n

Mike Schade, VP of Human Resources at Johnson Controls, was among the speakers to congratulate the graduates on their successes. \u201cYou all wanted to do something unique and exciting with your life,\u201d Schade said. You had a vision.

The work we do saves lives and saves the planet.\u201d<\/p>\n
