The Automotive Technology program at Texas State Technical College in Waco, TX, prepares students for careers in the automotive field.
From Amanda Sotelo’s article on the Valley Morning Star website:
Roberto Gonzalez grew up watching his father work on automobiles, and knew that was the career he wanted to pursue, so the Los Fresnos native enrolled in Automotive Technology at Texas State Technical College in 2014.
Two years later, Gonzalez received his associate degree with a perfect 4.0 grade-point average and immediately got hired at Gillman Chevrolet of Harlingen.
“I needed to start working after graduation and because TSTC’s training prepared me for the field, I was able to find a job right away,” said Gonzalez. “Now my twin brother goes to TSTC for machining and I’m helping him pay for his classes.”
Gillman’s Service Manager Ramiro Salguero said although Gonzalez has only been there a short time, he is already very impressed.
“Roberto is very productive and always ready to work,” said Salguero. “Coming in new he was already prepared to begin working as an entry-level tech.”
