Our Sports Medicine students are learning that proper infection control starts with the basics! They are learning about how germs spread and the preventative actions to take in order to keep the spread of disease to a minimum. Learning how to properly and safely dawn and doff Personal Protective Equipment (PPE) and using a UV light demonstration, they were able to see firsthand how germs can remain on hands when washing isn't done thoroughly. Experiences like these help students understand how simple habits can make a big difference in preventing the spread of illness and protecting patient safety.

We are proud to celebrate one of our Computer Information Technology students, Lucas Achenbach from Greenville, who recently participated in the ribbon-cutting ceremony for the new Cybersecurity Center computer lab at LindenPointe in Hermitage!
Lucas is a student participating in the dual enrollment partnership with Pennsylvania Cybersecurity while also being enrolled in the Computer Information Technology (CIT) program here at Mercer County Career Center. Lucas has earned two of the center's three certifications, and he expects to earn the third certification by the time he graduates.
This exciting new learning space represents a significant investment in the future of technology education and workforce development. By providing students with access to modern equipment and hands-on learning opportunities, the Cybersecurity Center will help prepare the next generation of IT and cybersecurity professionals for in-demand careers. The certification pathway provided through Pennsylvania Cybersecurity is a tremendous opportunity for our CIT students and a key benefit of the partnership.
Congratulations to our student for representing Mercer County Career Center at this important event, and thank you to all the partners who are helping create pathways to success in the rapidly growing field of cybersecurity.
