Success Stories 

"I work at Goodyear now doing oil changes and fixing tires.  I came to BOCES for training to work on engines." 

Claudy

Claudy enjoyed fixing bikes in his neighborhood when he was a kid.  Now he wants to work with his hands fixing cars. 

All he had to do was work with his VRC at VESID and his TLC at Jamaica High School and follow the Steps to Success to get a placement at BOCES, a vocational training program.

Look for Claudy next time you bring your car to a repair shop.
