      ab: Problem: The purpose of the Clinical Laboratory Initiative to Mentor Baccalaureate Students (CLIMBS) grant's was to successfully train individuals who were either unemployed or underemployed so they could obtain a certification with American Society for Clinical Pathology (ASCP) and find employment. CLIMBS students were given access to services including training, tutoring, a laptop, counseling, books, scrubs, and health insurance. The primary purpose of this study will examine the success of the student's training to determine if the additional resources provided by the grant made a positive contribution to the student's success. Design/Method: This study is a cross-sectional survey which includes 140 students which completed the program from August of 2013 to August of 2015. Aim 1 will examine students' entering grade point average (GPA) compared to their final GPA to determine if there is a statistical difference using t-test at a 0.05. Aim 2 will determine if there was a statistical significance between the number of unemployed or underemployed individuals before and after training utilize chi-square a 0.05. Aim 3 will compare the mean salaries difference of the CLIMBS participants before and after training. Results: There was a statistical difference in the employment status and the mean salary before and after training. Conclusion: Overall the CLIMBS grant had a positive impact on student outcomes.
