America’s Natural Gas Alliance (ANGA) recently donated $50,000 to the Support Our Troops Education Fund. The money will go towards scholarships for Ohio veterans pursuing a career in the natural gas industry. Through a partnership with Stark State College in North Canton and Eastern Gateway Community College in Steubenville, the funds will put veterans in the ShaleNet program.
ShaleNet is a course designed to train potential workers in skills needed for the oil and gas industry. The program is a result of a grant funded by the Department of Labor, Employment and Training Administration. Its mission is to design a comprehensive recruitment, training, placement, and retention program for high priority jobs in the industry.
