Auburn Career Resource Specialist
Reaches Career Placement Milestone On 31 May 07 at
WOU’s Auburn Office, Roger LaChapelle received a Career Placement
Milestone Award from Steve Wood. Roger is the first Career Services
Division CRS to receive this award, which highlights the importance
of making quality job placements, as this is one of our most
important core competencies. At the ceremony, I had the honor and
pleasure of reading the following citation:
Roger
LaChapelle is a very professional and talented Career Resource
Specialist, who embraces our company core values, and exemplifies
our mission every single day. Roger firmly believes and communicates
that all people can work through his actions. He has acted on this
belief by taking individuals with significant barriers to
employment, encouraging them, teaching them skills, fostering their
independence, and communicating their abilities to employers. Roger
has built a solid foundation of reciprocal relationships and has
established a substantial list of community partners who now look to
us for their hiring needs. The Auburn Director continuously receives
favorable comments from employers, referral sources and the
individuals he serves regarding the quality of services they receive
from him. As a capstone to his continuous outstanding performance
and outcome achievements, Roger placed an Aspire-referred individual
into a career position at Bates College on 7 May 2007. This
successful outcome represented Roger’s 100th career placement in
just over two years with Work Opportunities Unlimited -- a very
laudable milestone to celebrate. Thank you Roger for everything you
do for the individuals we serve, you truly have shown all of us how
to live each of our company core values, and have set the bar very
high for other Business Developers to strive towards.
Congratulations on your 100th career placement, Work Opportunities
Unlimited is very proud to have you as a member of our Career
Services Team. |
