Smithfield Foods Honored for Workforce Development Through Apprenticeship Programs.

"Providing valuable professional development experiences is key to opening doors of opportunity and cultivating the next-generation talent pipeline," said Isham Jay Bennett, chief human resources officer for Smithfield Foods. "We are grateful for our partnership with Wayne Community College and this recognition for our continued commitment to developing and accelerating fulfilling careers through quality education opportunities."

"Five years ago, Smithfield Foods came to Wayne Community College with a need to develop a pipeline for maintenance technicians," said Kristie Sauls, M.Ed, executive director of apprenticeships and career development for Wayne Community College. "This partnership has been a game changer for Smithfield, WCC, and the apprentices we serve. Being able to recognize the work Smithfield is doing here in North Carolina and across the nation is an honor because they see the need and value of the program."
