What you might see at first glance is a group of guys huddled around laptops and PLC trainers.

What I see is a group of hardworking individuals who came straight from work, or will head straight back to work, after spending hours learning a new skill. Every week, these men give up sleep, free time, and comfort to invest in themselves and grow professionally.

I also see companies willing to invest in their employees and recognize the value of continued training and development.

Whether you are an industry looking to strengthen your workforce or an individual ready to take the next step, learn a new skill, or make a career change, UACCM is here for you.

Be on the lookout for our upcoming summer training schedule for both the Russellville and Morrilton campuses. We want to help challenge and support you in becoming the best version of yourself.
