Training more students more quickly will be one goal of the new Webster County-based West Kentucky Regional Training Center â a project created in a partnership between Madisonville and Henderson Community and Technical Colleges and the county governments of Union and Webster counties.
Kentucky Governor Andy Beshear was in Webster County on Wednesday to award a $472,000 Community Development Block Grant for the project, which will be used to convert a former Dotiki Coal location in Lisman into classrooms and laboratories which bill used to train students looking to attain a Commercial Drivers License, to become an electrical lineman or to work as a diesel mechanic.
