Last month, we visited NHADA member Merchants Automotive to recognize Ashley Wendt and Jacob Gilmartin on successfully completing their apprenticeships.
NHADA works closely with ApprenticeshipNH to promote automotive apprenticeships where individuals receive paid work experience, classroom instruction and a portable, nationally recognized credential while employers develop their future workforce. Through their Automotive program, students like Ashley and Jacob complete over 2000 hours of on-the-job training, as well as related instruction by one of the five NH community colleges with automotive programs.
Learn more about the ApprenticeshipNH program.
The NHADA promotes programs like this as they are truly a win for everyone. Students can receive financial assistance and “earn while they learn”, while businesses can utilize the program to access a diverse talent pool and combat employee turnover; apprenticeships are great for encouraging employee loyalty.
We thank you, Merchants Automotive, for using this platform to encourage high-tech, high-wage opportunities in automotive.
