John Deere Technology |
 The John Deere Tech program is an educational experience designed to upgrade the technical competence and professional skills of incoming John Deere employees and enhance the skills of existing John Deere personnel. The program consists of classroom lecture and laboratory experiences on actual John Deere products and includes a unique paid cooperative work experience for students at a John Deere dealership. The curriculum was designed in partnership with the John Deere Corporation and is maintained with input from an advisory committee of local and regional dealership employees and John Deere personnel. |
| Provide education and training to prepare students to become John Deere professionals. Inspire positive work ethic, good communication skills, and strong technical skills needed in John Deere organizations. |
| Students may earn an Associate in Applied Arts and Sciences Degree in John Deere Technology upon completion of the two-year program of study. |
| Students can enter this program during the fall quarter each year or winter quarters of every even numbered year. Since considerable time is spent at the dealership, the program requires the student to have a sponsoring dealer. The main responsibility of the dealership is to provide training-related employment for the student during work experience quarters. If necessary, students can request assistance in locating a sponsoring dealer. A placement test and a mechanical reasoning test offered by the Student Development Center must be completed prior to admittance to the program. |
