The ribbon was cut Tuesday on a new center dedicated to providing job training and education to an underserved community.

The Raphael Rivera Opportunity Center is now open at 2900 East Stewart Avenue, which is near Stewart Avenue and Mojave Road.

The center will provide job training, educational programs and economic development, targeting the Hispanic community.

"The more services and educational opportunities that we connect with this part of town the better it is going to be, not just for this part of town, but Nevada in general," Assemblywoman Lucy Flores D-Las Vegas, whose district includes the same area, said

The Latin Chamber of Commerce Community Foundation is working with the City of Las Vegas to run the new center.

Millions of people pass through McCarran International Airport every year. Which makes it is a huge marketplace for small business owners but getting a foot in the door at the airport can be tough.

Friday the airport is holding a free workshop to explain the process for setting up shop inside the airport. It’s a process called Request for Proposals. The workshop will give business owners an overview of the process. Officials will also go through what documents and information are needed.

Right now there are three open RFP opportunities at the airport for Specialty Retail, Airport Concierge Services, and Per Captia Limousine and Minibus Services. There could also be more business opportunities opening at the airport in the next few months.
