 MHC Kenworth Truck Technology Program Description
The MHC Kenworth Truck Technology Program is supported by the Murphy-Hoffman Company. An important feature of the program is that each semester students will attend seven and one-half weeks of classes on campus, then the remainder of the semester at a MHC Kenworth dealership on a paid internship. This intensive method of instruction prepares a high performance technician that MHC Kenworth demands. Graduates typically stay with the sponsoring dealership as a full-time employee. Kenworth trucks are becoming more advanced and require highly trained technicians to insure proper diagnosis and repair. To work on Kenworth's new technologies, service technicians require a thorough knowledge of math, science, reading/comprehension and writing skills to acquire an advanced understanding of engines, transmissions, differentials, electrical and electronic systems, chassis, air conditioning, brakes and steering. As front line employees with direct customer contact, today's service technician also requires interpersonal skills to communicate with customers, peers and management. The student can expect nearly 100% job placement rate, low faculty/student ratio and paid internships. Program Entry Requirements:
