Ford Technical Placement Specialist, Brandon Evans, stopped by MAC Tech today to talk with Automotive Technology students about career opportunities and financial support through Ford. With Ford actively recruiting to meet the rising demand for technicians, MAC Tech grads have a direct path to working at Ford dealerships.
Brandon walked students through the Ford Auto Tech Scholarship, a $4 million effort funded by Ford Philanthropy and Ford Dealers. Eligible auto and diesel students can receive a $5,000 need-based scholarship to help cover tuition, tools, living expenses, and transportation.
The initiative is already making a real impact on campus. Last year, 11 MAC students applied and received a combined $37,250 in funding. Interest has surged this year, with 24 students submitting applications.
Thank you, Brandon, for taking the time to support our students and share the opportunities available with Ford!
