Discover RVR's achievements through inspiring Success Stories of individuals who have risen to fortune, acclaim, or remarkable accomplishments. More Success Stories Tina Kinirsky Tina Kinirsky first joined RVR as a Rural Works client in 2014. She successfully completed the program and began building a stable future. However, life presented setbacks, and Tina experienced a relapse that led to her re-incarceration. Rather than let that define her, Tina chose to grow. While incarcerated, she enrolled in RVR’s occupational skills training program, where she completed the Accuplacer course and earned her MSSC-CPT (Certified Production Technician) certification. Recognized for her exceptional mathematical abilities, Tina began tutoring fellow inmates through RVR’s prison education program. Upon release, Tina was hired by Grote Industries and continued her work as a tutor for RVR. She quickly expanded her role, contributing to data management for the Adult Education program and serving as a teacher’s assistant in local jails. Always striving for more, Tina also enrolled in college to pursue a Bachelor’s Degree in Business. In December 2024, Tina will graduate with her degree and step into a new role as RVR’s jail teacher, serving multiple correctional facilities. Her journey is a testament to resilience, transformation, and the power of second chances. Tina is a passionate, dedicated educator who now helps others rewrite their own stories—and we couldn’t be prouder of her. My Success Story

The Indiana Career Apprenticeship Pathway (INCAP) is a new option to help Hoosiers prepare for promising careers. Employers lead the pathway, ensuring students have the skills and knowledge to fill in-demand jobs. Ready to learn more? Sealy Hyatt call ‪(812) 801-9009‬ or email shyatt@rivervalleyresources.com Indiana Career Apprenticeship Pathway (INCAP) The Indiana Career Apprenticeship Pathway (INCAP) provides new opportunities for education and career training for students who want to learn through a combination of real-world, on-the-job experience and classroom learning, and for employers committed to developing talent in their industries to fill workforce needs. INCAP meets high school and adult students where they need to be met, offering programs that combine relevant coursework and on-the-job training to learn professional skills that meet industry needs and help strengthen Indiana. Employers are helping define the skills and knowledge INCAP students need to fill the jobs of today and tomorrow. This is a major differentiator for INCAP, and it means students will be ready for in-demand careers and employers will have access to well-prepared talent. INCAP credentials and degrees are recognized by employers and higher education, so students have options for what comes after their INCAP program, whether that’s an in-demand career or additional education options in college or via INCAP. School A customized business solutions designed to help employers attract and recruit skilled, job-ready employees for their business. Learn More Employers Employers unite with a shared voice to shape workforce priorities and take the lead in educating and training new talent. Learn More Middle & High School Educators Indiana students now have another option to prepare for a successful career after high school with paid on-the-job training paired with traditional classroom learning. As a complement to the high school-to-college pathway, students who complete INCAP AP earn the Employment Honors Plus Seal with their high school diploma as well as an INCAP AP credential. Industry Talent Associations (ITAs) collaborate with educators to identify the required competencies and skills students need to learn on-site and in the classroom. While employers teach students the competencies needed to complete their apprenticeship program, students also complete relevant coursework taught by educators in the classroom. This alignment of classroom education and on-the-job learning ensures students are ready for the workforce or are prepared to pursue a college degree or enter the INCAP Career Program (INCAP CP). The INCAP Apprenticeship Program (INCAP AP) offers a new option for students who want to learn through real-world, on-the-job experiences. Students will gain consistent and high-quality education and training that meets industry standards in their careers of interest. Both employers and higher education recognize INCAP credentials and degrees. Therefore, depending on the selected INCAP AP occupation, students may be able to complete a two- or four-year college degree in fewer years, given the credit they receive for their INCAP AP credential. Teachers help equip students with the knowledge they need to be successful in their work-based learning experience and chosen career path. INCAP gives students an additional way to thrive beyond the traditional classroom-only path by offering real-world, on-the-job experiences to explore their passions and achieve their dreams. INCAP ensures that more students, especially those who don’t prefer classroom learning, are encouraged to pursue the education and training they need for promising careers. High school students who participate in work-based learning experiences are often surprised by how well they function as professionals, giving them confidence in their futures.

INCAP provides employers with a high-quality, well-organized structure to build their talent pipeline. By helping employers collaborate and speak as one voice about their industry’s talent needs, employers align on the competencies needed for in- demand occupations within their industry and the necessary education to develop their future workforce. INCAP is supported by Industry Talent Associations, organizations charged with leading employer engagement. Also called ITAs, they are already active in multiple industries and are seeking employers to join their efforts to choose occupations and build the relevant education and training framework. ITAs serve two primary functions: develop education and training materials and assessments for use during on-the-job training, and provide occupation-specific training for employees who supervise on-the-job work. High school students participate in paid apprenticeships (the INCAP Apprenticeship Program) while adults learn through industry-led training while working full- or part-time (the INCAP Career Program). In the INCAP Apprenticeship Program (INCAP AP), students spend most of their time on site and participate in apprenticeship programs year-round, meaning employers get eager new employees ready to support business needs. Students who complete INCAP AP have the education and training they need to hit the ground running, helping to build industry-specific talent pipelines. The INCAP Career Program (INCAP CP) allows employers to offer a training program for employees to advance within their own company and receive a degree that is recognized across their industry and by higher education. Industry Talent Associations (ITAs) bring together peers across an industry to create education and training materials and develop assessments for each occupation. Employers also receive support from the ITA in the form of recruitment assistance and supervisor training. Employers can retain local talent that, in turn, helps Indiana communities and businesses thrive. On-the-job training combined with classroom learning allow young professionals to grow, thrive, and build a successful future in their chosen industry. Employers can help students discover promising careers they might not have considered. INCAP contributes to a stronger business climate and economy in Indiana, positioning the state as a destination for business growth, talent development, and retention.

Discover RVR's achievements through inspiring Success Stories of individuals who have risen to fortune, acclaim, or remarkable accomplishments. More Success Stories Dalton At just 18 years old, Dalton came to River Valley Resources with determination and a clear goal: to earn his High School Equivalency Diploma and begin building a stable future. When he enrolled in Adult Education, he faced several barriers, including limited work history, unemployment, low income, and unreliable transportation due to his truck being out of service. Despite these challenges, Dalton remained focused and committed to changing his circumstances. Through hard work and perseverance, Dalton successfully earned his HSED, graduating on May 20. With his education milestone achieved, he turned his attention to gaining real-world work experience. He was placed in a Work Experience (WEX) position with North Vernon Parks and Recreation, serving as a maintenance worker and learning valuable hands-on skills. Before beginning his WEX placement, Dalton completed career readiness workshops, including interviewing, workplace expectations, and soft skills training. These sessions helped him build confidence and prepare for success on the job. To ensure he had what he needed to start strong, he also received supportive services for essential work items such as boots, jeans, a lunchbox, thermos, and sweatshirt. Dalton quickly proved himself to be a dependable and hardworking team member. His supervisor consistently praised his performance and was so impressed that he planned to meet with the Parks Director to discuss the possibility of bringing Dalton on as a permanent employee. Since enrolling in the program, Dalton has achieved several major accomplishments: Earned his HSED Successfully completed his WEX placement Repaired his truck, restoring reliable transportation Built work experience and strong employer references Dalton’s journey reflects the power of determination and the impact of supportive education and workforce programs. His progress shows what is possible when young adults are given the tools, guidance, and encouragement they need to succeed. With his strong work ethic and growing confidence, Dalton’s future looks bright—and this is only the beginning. My Success Story
