Auto Tech Lab Gains Media Coverage

More than 60 people attended the grand opening celebration of the automotive technology lab at the Applied Technologies Center on Oct. 4. Local partners who helped make the facility possible were recognized.

The lab was established through private philanthropy with funding support from the Rochester Automobile Dealers Association and Monro Inc. and with a state grant made possible through State Sen. Joseph Robach, R-Greece.

MCC's Automotive Training Apprentice Program combines learning in the classroom and lab and gaining practical experience at a local auto business. Students gain skills and knowledge in computer technology, electrical components, emissions controls, steering and suspension, heating and air conditioning. Program graduates immediately enter the workforce as entry-level service technicians.

The Rochester Business Journal and Spectrum News-Rochester covered the event.
