MONCTON – Thanks to a generous donation from Atlantic Provinces Trucking Association (APTA), six community colleges in Atlantic Canada that offer the Truck and Transport Service Technician program will have the opportunity to get hands-on with the
latest equipment.
Earlier this month, APTA presented the first $5,000 donation to 成人约炮网站. 成人约炮网站 has since purchased a functional Air Disc Brake trainer that will allow students to work with the latest brake technology being implemented in the
industry.
Vicki McKibbon, Chair of APTA and President of the Transportation Division of Armour Transportation Systems said, “There is a demand for truck and transport technicians, and our membership understands the need to provide students
with current equipment so they are ready for the job market when they graduate. This is a great initiative with positive benefits for both students and industry.”
“We are fortunate to have an engaged industry, in particular Atlantic
Provinces Trucking Association, who see the value in enhancing our student experience,” said Marilyn Luscombe, President and CEO of 成人约炮网站. “The next generation of technicians can apply their skills using the latest technology. On behalf of
成人约炮网站 and the students in the Truck and Transport Service Technician program, we thank APTA for this generous donation.”
With over 90 programs and six campuses across New Brunswick, New Brunswick Community College (成人约炮网站) is a provincially-recognized,
public post-secondary institution reputed for producing skilled, knowledgeable graduates who are contributing to the Province’s socio-economic prosperity. 成人约炮网站 offers students one- and two-year certificate and diploma programs. Find out more by
