WOODVILLE, Miss. -- Fayette Resident Larry Jackson says he’s proud of his students at Wilkinson County Correctional Facility (WCCF). Under his leadership, 10 of his students in the Facilities Care program – all incarcerated – passed the basic safety test in Module One of the Core Curriculum Book used in the program, according to Deputy Warden of Programs Tonya Toomey.
“This is the first essential test in the program,” said
Jackson. His students are now eligible to take the Occupational Safety and Health
Administration (OSHA) exam for certification.
Jackson holds a bachelor’s degree in Political Science
from Alcorn State University. He has certifications in carpentry and structural
welding.
Toomey said the initial test is important. “This is a
college level test,” she said, adding she applauds Jackson and his students for
their hard work. “We’re all proud of this achievement.”
WCCF is operated by Management & Training Corporation
(MTC) of Utah for the Mississippi Department of Corrections (MDOC).
