HCC FAME SIGNING DAY HELD!
Published on Aug 10, 2026
Please join us in welcoming the newest Henderson Community College FAME cohort!
Congratulations to these 11 future Advanced Manufacturing Technicians as they begin
an exciting 18-month journey through the HCC FAME program. This week, they kicked
off their experience with orientation, ending the celebration with lunch alongside
the employer partners who are investing in their future.
Our Signing Day Celebration featured inspiring remarks from HCC FAME Chapter President
Matt Vanderpool of Pratt Industries, HCC FAME alumnus Reece Lancaster of Shamrock
Technologies, and Kelsi Dunham Johnston, Executive Director of United Way of Henderson
County. Their stories and encouragement reminded our newest cohort that incredible
opportunities lie ahead.
We're proud of each of these students for taking the next step toward a rewarding
career in advanced manufacturing. Your future starts now—we can't wait to see what
you'll accomplish!
