Concurrent Technologies Corporation (CTC) hosted a signing ceremony today at its Environmental Technology Facility in Johnstown, PA to formalize its commitment to the Army Partnership for Youth Success (PaYS) Program. The event included an official signing of the agreement between representatives of U.S. Army Recruiting Command (USAREC), U.S. Army Cadet Command, and CTC. Today’s signing served as the culminating event to solidify CTC’s participation in the PaYS Program. Major General (MG) Donald Campbell Jr., Commanding General, United States Army Recruiting Command, along with Brigadier General Arnold N. Gordon-Bray, Deputy Commanding General, United States Army Cadet Command (accepting on behalf of Major General Arthur M. Bartell, Commanding General, United States Army Cadet Command), participated in the ceremony. CTC employees that participated in the ceremony were Mr. Edward J. Sheehan Jr., President & Chief Executive Officer, Mr. Michael True, Manager, Force Protection Programs, Mr. John Forte, Senior Mechanical Engineer, and Ms. Tricia Wright, Conference Coordinator.
“CTC is committed to helping transition soldiers from Army life to the civilian workforce. We look forward to providing them the opportunity to connect with our organization,” said Mr. Sheehan. “We currently have more than 30 employees in Reserve components of the United States Army and other Department of Defense Services. CTC understands the unique circumstances that both Reserve and transitioning active military members face, and we take the steps necessary to make the transition smoother for all involved parties.”
MG Campbell thanked CTC “for its commitment to participate in the PaYS Program.” MG Campbell added, “This program is a vital recruiting tool to provide citizen Soldiers and those transitioning from active duty to corporate America links to friendly partners that benefit from the values and skills developed through military training and service. The PaYS Program and our PaYS partners will continue to make our nation strong and our Army Strong.”
The PaYS Program is a recruiting initiative developed by USAREC to appeal to young veterans interested in obtaining a quality civilian job after serving in the Army. This unique program is part of the Army’s effort to partner with the business community and re-connect America with the Army. The Program also assists Reserve Component ROTC cadets with employment after graduation and commissioning as they continue to serve as officers in the Army Reserve or Army National Guard. As a PaYS partner, CTC will benefit by being able to employ Army officers with values, leadership training, dedication, and commitment. More than 250 companies are already partnered with the Army on the PaYS Program. For more information, visit www.armypays.com.
