- Interview preparation
- On-the-spot career counseling
- Access to enhanced technical services
The MassHire Lowell Mobile Career Center is a mobile bus unit that has been equipped with solar panels to power workstations within the bus to allow for Career Center services to hit the road to all of our local communities, cities and towns.
The Greater Lowell Technical High School (GLTHS) Construction and Transportation & Manufacturing Clusters played a key role in transforming a utility bus, purchased from the Lowell Regional Transit Authority (LRTA), into a state-of-the-art mobile career center. The student-led renovations included new interior, batteries, tires, wood floors and cabinets, and new countertops for solar powered workstations. Students also installed a backup camera system, trailer hitch assembly, solar exterior motion lighting, and solar powered security camera system.
This student-led project exemplifies the strong community partnerships between MassHire Lowell and local institutions like GLTHS, which help to enhance workforce development opportunities across the region.
The Mobile Career Center will make scheduled appearances beginning in the Spring of 2025. Scheduled appearances will appear on this website once available.
