"I plan to become a journeyman toolmaker, and I couldn’t have done that without the program at ICC." - Cara, ICC Apprentice ? While working at Eaton Corporation, Cara discovered a unique opportunity: a Machine Tool Technology Apprenticeship offered through ICC. Out of 20 candidates, Cara was one of only two to pass the test, securing the apprenticeship—and making history as the company’s first female apprentice in the program. Returning to school as an adult was intimidating, but the welcoming, supportive environment at ICC helped Cara overcome her concerns. Apprenticeship Coordinator Amanda Nordstrom provided essential support, helping her with everything from getting her student ID to buying books. Now, Cara often finds herself mentoring her younger classmates, paying forward the support she received.
