ERIC: My name is Eric Almeida, and I’m the department chair for the automotive technology program
ERIC: One of the main reasons for giving our students internships is to give them a dose of reality. What’s it going to be like when they hit the shop floor?
JASON: My name is Jason Patnaude and I’m in Auto Tech at Mount Wachusett Community College.
JASON: I set lifts on the cars and you know, do minor things that are asked of me like changing oil, changing tires, changing fuel filters, maybe do clean up, everything like that.
LANCE: My name is Lance Mitchell and I’m the Service Manager here at Mercedes Benz of Shrewsbury
LANCE: Jason has been on board for about six months and we’re very impressed with him as a human being, a citizen, as well as an employee, just a great young man. His mentor ... after a couple of weeks, said I’ve already hired him to come on full-time after he graduates in May.
JASON: Working with the people from Wagner, it’s been really, really good … They have no problem with me leaving early or coming in late because I have class, so it’s five stars, 10 out of 10 for everyone here because they make me love this job, or internship
ERIC: One of the things about Jason that I think has made him as successful as he is is desire to learn new information ... He looks deeper than just the repair, he looks into the cause, and that’s what makes a great tech.
JASON: I talk to the other technicians here, and how they went to a bunch of a lot bigger colleges, and that it was more of kind of an assembly line feeling versus MWCC’s course where I feel like that you have fellow classmates help you, you have the teacher help you, and the experiences you get from just having that smaller group or smaller one-on-one feel, I feel like it definitely helps because you learn a lot more
JASON: I think that the program there at MWCC is one of the best in terms of the students’ needs because without all of the people who have helped me along the way at MWCC, I probably would never be where I would be today.
