"There has been a long-standing partnership between Old Town Cape and SEMO, and we have been able to give students that real-life experience of downtown revitalization. This, in return, gives us the support that we absolutely need to continue our mission as a non-profit!"

- Liz Hayes, Old Town Cape

"We have a high success hiring SEMO graduates. One of the professors at the university used to work here. He’s got a background in manufacturing that is relevant and able to teach the students. The university teaches Solid Edge program, which is the same modeling software we use here to design our enclosures!"

- Mark Carlton, Schaefer Electrical Enclosures

"We know if a student is a part of SEMO, they are going to get a quality education... SEMO grads have the tools to really be successful here, whether that's a clinical person, a physician, or someone in a support role, a lot of our key stakeholders here at Mercy are SEMO grads."

- Clay Thornhill, Mercy Southeast

"We've got four SEMO alumni who are here now... Whenever they come in, they're able to hit the ground running and can definitely jump right into the team and take off from day one."

- Ethan Renner, KCI Construction
