BAKER, La. -- More than 130 students have completed skilled trade classes in welding, electrical, millwright, pipefitting and water operations since the Baker Workforce Development Center opened in January.
Officials tell The Advocate (http://bit.ly/1r5zbGo ) it's the kind of program that should be replicated around the state.
The center, operated by Baton Rouge Community College, now enrolls about two dozen men and one woman, all of whom are working on skills they hope will net them high-paying jobs in the upcoming industrial boom officials are touting.
