DEVENS, MA (Dec, 2025) – Shriver Job Corps is actively enrolling new students seeking skilled trades training in the nation’s leading industries.
Job Corps connects young people with the skills, training and education they need to achieve lifelong career success. The nation’s largest residential career training program, Job Corps has helped more than 3 million low-income 16- through 24-year-olds transform their lives and build a brighter future for more than 60 years.
At Shriver Job Corps, students can live on campus while they train and receive wraparound services including basic health care, three meals a day and job search assistance—all at no cost to students.
“I came to Job Corps in November 2023. By doing so, I took a massive risk by burning bridges with my old jobs to come here (Job Corps). I originally came for carpentry but found that I was much better off working with computers. During my time at Shriver Job Corps, I completed 3 trades; Office Administration, Computer Technology and AWS Cloud Computing. I made many new friends and was able to grow as a person for the first time. I was never allowed to be my own man until I came here. I never had a purpose or a desire to achieve anything, until Job Corps.”
