The Mount Sinai Health System has partnered with Workforce Opportunity Services, a leading nonprofit dedicated to recruiting, training, and placing underserved and veteran job seekers into long-lasting careers at prominent organizations. Through the WOS On Demand program, veterans Jonathan Duchnowski, Kevin Lama, and Anit Shrestha were recruited and placed in various roles within the Department of Information Technology at Mount Sinai. The Workforce program gives us a great opportunity to give back to those who have served in the military protecting our country," said Roger Braman, RN, PMP, senior director of information technology at the Mount Sinai Health System. According to Jonathan Duchnowski, a veteran of the U.S. Navy, "The WOS program helped me by providing practiced skills of business acumen and networking, and has helped me to translate my military skills to the business world.” For Kevin Lama, a veteran of the U.S. Army, the WOS Program has given him the opportunity to be excited about coming to work and civilian life. "My experience at Mount Sinai and WOS has been rewarding and prosperous. I look forward to growing within the Mount Sinai Health System and the IT security department.
