Greater Boston Gaming Career Institute Ribbon Cutting
Cambridge College, in partnership with Encore Boston Harbor, hosted a ribbon cutting ceremony for the Greater Boston Gaming Career Institute. The ceremony featured remarks from Encore Boston Harbor CEO Robert DiSalvio, Cambridge College President Deborah Jackson, and Wynn Resorts CEO Matt Maddox. State Senator Sal DiDomenico and State Representative Dan Ryan, as well as many students from the inaugural class, were also in attendance.
President Jackson emphasized Cambridge College’s commitment to the region’s adult learner population and providing resources and training to fulfill the workforce needs of the Commonwealth of Massachusetts. Not only will graduates of the Gaming Career Institute possess skills and knowledge that are in high demand, they will also be on the path towards a successful career in the rapidly-growing casino industry.
The Greater Boston Gaming Career Institute welcomes more than 165 local students to its Bet On U program, which was created by Cambridge College in collaboration with Encore Boston Harbor. The institute was formed under the leadership of the Massachusetts Gaming Commission. The Bet On U program is designed to train qualified, employment-ready gaming professionals who are interested in starting exciting new careers as one of the more than 1,100 full- and part-time dealers at Encore Boston Harbor when the resort opens in June of 2019.
