Oklahoma Governor Kevin Stitt paid a visit to Tri County Tech in Bartlesville to meet with participants in the Skills to Rebuild program funded by the Governor's Emergency Education Relief Fund. Governor Stitt says Skills to Rebuild helps train underemployed or unemployed Oklahomans to be able to obtain jobs identified in the local area.

Gov. Stitt says Tri County Tech projects 450 graduates from the program by May with an average hourly wage increase of $3.04. He says some graduates have seen their salaries double in their new careers.
