Arkansas Governor Asa Hutchinson even made a statement in a press release saying,

This is another pace-setting workforce solution that has grown out of conversations between leaders in industry and education. Arkansas’s businesses had a problem, our educators stepped in to fill it, and we are able to support it with an Arkansas Regional Workforce grant.

This project is bringing the private sector and the government together to bring quality training to people in our area and across the state of Arkansas.
