The relationship between Gateway and Snap-on has helped build a new strategy for us at our college, as a way to improve not only the facilities and the programs that we offer, but most importantly the outcomes and experiences of our students. It’s a curriculum change, a faculty innovation model, and most important, it’s a way to help students connect to the real world. Students graduate with unique skill sets. I hear from the industry that students need to perform at high skill levels. We’ve worked with Snap-on to develop a certification program that has gained national recognition.”
- Bryan Albrecht, President, Gateway Technical College
“The response to the program has been very positive; this curriculum offers a great foundation for student careers. They want to complete these certifications. We’ve had a positive response from local shop owners regarding student capabilities from the program.”
- Pete Gregory, Instructor, Pitt Community College
