买世界杯app推荐 hosts soft launch and reveals plans for new Center for Automotive Excellence
佐治亚州奥古斯塔——2023年11月2日
买世界杯app推荐 revealed its plans for the new Center for Automotive Excellence during a soft launch opening event on November 1. 该机构还公布了该设施未来的命名, 正在等待乔治亚州技术学院系统委员会的批准, 吉姆·哈德森汽车研究所.
The new instructional facility will offer comprehensive training for automotive technicians, including in the specialized areas of electric and hybrid vehicles; light, 媒介, and heavy duty diesel; motorcycles; watercraft; and autobody and paint. 另外, the site will include a “live work” program so the auto tech students as well as 奥古斯塔 Tech’s School of Business students can get firsthand experience working with customers.
“The Jim Hudson Automotive Institute will be a national model for automotive instruction,” said Dr. 杰梅因·威尔，买世界杯app推荐院长. “No other college is offering this range of training both on the technical and business sides of the industry in one location.”
The facility will be named the Jim Hudson Automotive Institute in recognition of a $1 million gift from the Jim Hudson Automotive Group. The College also received $1 million each from the 奥古斯塔 National Golf Club and the Knox Foundation to acquire the facility earlier this year. Located at 1122 Walton Way, it was formerly the home of Johnson Cadillac.
Mr. Hudson told the assembled crowd at Wednesday’s event that the hardest positions to hire in his company are the auto technicians. “没有足够的训练有素的技术人员,他说, “尽管我们的许多技术人员都能挣到六位数的薪水.”
对合格技术人员的需求是促使他辞职的一个因素. 哈德逊决定支持这个项目. 这家公司的潜在精神是另一个. “We employ 900 plus people and they all know our priorities are our employees, 我们的客户, 我们的社区. When you’ve been blessed as we have been, it is important to give back to others.”
第一批课程将于2025年秋季在该网站开设. The College currently offers a diploma and numerous technical certificates of credit programs in automotive technology. These offerings will be expanded to include more programs in the new institute. 奥古斯塔 Tech also plans to add automotive-industry specific classes to its Associated of Applied Science degrees in the School of Business. The institute will also provide noncredit training and upskilling through the College’s Division of 经济发展.
“We are already hearing from companies throughout the region who say they will hire our graduates and send their current employees to us for training,” Dr. 旋转指出. “We will have the space and the flexibility to offer everything from intensive boot camps and summer programs to school children to college degrees. 这真的是一个游戏规则的改变者.”
奥古斯塔 Tech is currently in conversations with individuals and companies across the automotive industry in the CSRA, 遍及乔治亚州和南卡罗来纳州, and even nationally to raise additional money to renovate and equip the building. A complete list of funding opportunities is available from the 奥古斯塔 Tech Foundation at 706-771-4023 or foundation@exxxk.com.
