Congratulations to our Building Bridges Graduates!

On behalf of AFSCME Local 328 we would like to extend congratulations to all of the recent graduates of the Building Bridges program.

These graduates have spent months of hard work, and in some cases a full year, in an effort to learn, grow, and further their career in the medical fields. The courage needed to take that step forward on their career paths, to risk themselves as they advance in the medical field cannot be understated. To complete their apprenticeships and graduate from the program takes an immense amount of hard work, dedication, commitment, and we are sure many long nights studying. To accomplish all this while also having to navigate and balance both their personal and professional lives is an incredible achievement and we could not be more proud of all of them.

As the graduates move forward from here we hope they will bring their new knowledge and training to the betterment of OHSU and all of Oregon's healthcare system. We know they will improve the quality of care and help to better our patient experience, and Local 328 cannot wait to see our recent graduates in action no matter which apprenticeship they chose. Just as a rising tide raises all ships; our newly graduated dental assistants, certified clinical medical assistants, certified nursing assistants, and phlebotomists will all help to raise us all up in our mission to provide for the people of Oregon. 

We hope all of our graduates are as proud of themselves as AFSCME Local 328 is of them, and that they will continue to do great and incredible things in their future careers. Congratulations again to all of our graduates listed here:
