WyoTech

Ok so lots of people are asking me about it so here goes.... there is alot of cool things lol!

What you do is pick what you want to study (Automotive tech, diesel, marine, collision repair) and Alex has picked Automotive. So for the first 6 months he'll be studying that, and then you choose a 3 month program. He chose motorsports chassis fabrication for the 3 months and THEN you can add things on if you want. So he's adding the applied service management program so that he can get his associates degree :-) In three months! Its an awesome program. Some of the cool things about Wyotech are;

* They supply all of the tools you'll need
* While you are enrolled in the school you get 60% off Matco tools and 50% off Snap-On!
* Their placement in a job percentage is 100%, 96-98% is in the first month!
* They have over 40,000 companies who come to their job fairs to hire students. And they go there first.
* After you finish school they send your resume out to all of the companies for you, and after 10 years if you decide you need another job you call them up and for free they will work up another resume and send it out! You're always part of the school.
* If 5 years after you graduate there is a new car or something you want to learn about working on, for FREE you go back to the school as a "floater" and learn about it with the students.
* If you show up to class with your shirt untucked or your hair messy you go home for the day. And employers know this so thats one of the reasons they like to hire students from Wyotech.

There are so many other cool things but thats all I can think of right now. It's a very expensive school but its not like you graduate and then thats it. They always will take care of you and help you find a job.
