Corrections Corporation of America Featured in Latest G.I. Jobs Magazine for Recession-Resistant Careers

Wendy Gardner, CCA senior director, Staffing and Recruiting

Nashville, TN (Vocus) September 9, 2009

Corrections Corporation of America is featured in the September issue of G.I. Jobs magazine for its commitment to providing solid correctional careers to transitioning military servicepersons. In the feature story, “Careers in Corrections,” the publication describes military experience as “the perfect match for this recession-resistant industry.”

With a circulation of 75,000, G.I. Jobs is a go-to resource for servicepersons planning their post-Service careers. The monthly publication is distributed in hundreds of military transition centers and government employment centers around the world.

“Our culture has much in common with the military,” said Wendy Gardner, CCA senior director, Staffing and Recruiting. “We hold authority in high regard and follow a chain of command that is familiar to veterans. We are guided by a deep sense of camaraderie that stems from our duty to protect fellow staff members, our communities and the populations in our care.”

CCA has twice been ranked in G.I. Jobs annual listing of the Top 50 Military-Friendly Employers. According to company figures, CCA’s work force is approximately 10 percent veteran-based. Some of its correctional centers have been recognized locally and regionally for its efforts and success in military recruitment.

For example, Diamondback Correctional Facility was recently honored as a military-friendly employer by the Disabled American Veterans (DAV). CCA previously has been recognized by The American Legion’s National Economics Commission as the “Large Employer of the Year” for the State of Georgia, for efforts in recruiting and employing veterans at its Stewart Detention Center, located in Lumpkin, Ga.

“Career opportunities for veterans remain a national concern,” said Bill Rusak, CCA executive vice president and chief human resources officer. “Our organization continues to recognize veterans for the ready-made assets they bring to the table. They’ve proven their service, dedication, drive and professionalism at the highest levels. They make our national work force stronger.”

CCA offers career opportunities in administration, education, health services, facility maintenance, management, rehabilitative programs and more. To learn more, please visit http://www.ccajob.com.

Benefits of Construction Project Management Software

Project management is a concept that is used to efficiently manage the resources the way that they should be handled. Every project has different terms and ways of management, therefore it is important that you understand the limitations and try to overcome them.

A construction project management is entirely different from other types of project management. It includes getting construction project leads, selecting the construction area, design, architecture, cost involved and other aspects. With the introduction of construction software’s, it has now become easier to feed relevant information about the project in a single database and to build the reports for a client presentation later. Further, you save yourself from making a mistake or leaving an important point by using construction software.

With the construction software industry continuously evolving, vendors across the market are trying to come up with new features to make project management easier. These new additions will help the contractor to operate more efficiently and adopt easier & smoother work practices.

Construction management software’s have many benefits besides reducing the need of paperwork and preventing logjams. It is the increased demand of real time data that has zeroed the paper reporting work. With real time reporting, contractors can track the cost of the project instantly as well as review the updated cost of the job from anywhere. In this way, you can monitor the construction budget more closely and effectively that further helps to provide clear updates to clients.

Apart from helping in making the payroll and tracking the job cost, a construction software also works for projects that include documents like submittals, RFI’s and change orders. These days construction software’s allow the paperwork to be created, reviewed, submitted and approved online, which removes the need to take print outs of documents and keeping a hard copy. The software not only makes the process easier and efficient, but also reduces the chances of errors.

You can also manage the documents that are now produced within the software through construction management software. After scanning the document, attach it to the transaction record and you can easily refer to it for answering queries.

Earlier these project management software’s were extremely costly and only big construction companies were able to afford them. But the increasing competition has slashed down the rates of these software’s. You can buy affordable software that would monitor the job schedules, make notes, link to job cost transactions, give critical path information as well as provide relevant information to the management. These highly complex features are now featured with all the construction software and can improve the efficiency of operations.
