Meet Our New Program Manager

BridgePort Group is excited to announce that Marykate Hammer has joined our team as the new Program Manager for the Supply Chain Logistics Technology & Warehouse Certification Program!

Mary Kate holds a Master’s degree in Social Work and has experience managing vocational training programs in Maine and Texas. She is returning home to Cleveland where she'll support the educational needs of adult learners and help employers source qualified staff throughout the area.

In partnership with Cuyahoga Community College (Tri-C) and Community-based Organizations, BridgePort provides workforce development training that creates a pipeline of highly trained employees for our local businesses. The Supply Chain, Logistics Technology & Warehouse Program provides financial assistance and other supportive services through Tri-C and community partners. We have learned that offering additional resources helps to reduce obstacles and boost the chances for success of our students.

“The beauty of vocational training is that this type of education benefits the student, their families, and the greater community. Not only does vocational training equip students with practical skills, but it also prepares them to enter a well-paying career in an in-demand industry. As a result, our employers have a larger pool of qualified applicants to deliver their services. I am excited to work closely with local businesses and organizations to introduce students to some of the latest industry advancements and discuss how our program can benefit the sector and the communities BridgePort serves.” -Marykate

Please help us welcome Marykate to BridgePort as we continue to support students ready to elevate their lives through this certification program. Through existing and new partnerships, with job placement programs, shelters, re-entry programs, and non-profits, Marykate will continue to drive the positive socio-economic impact in the region that the Supply Chain program has become known for.

Our mission for the remainder of 2022 is to train and assist with placement of 100 individuals in jobs by 2023!
