A new five-year partnership between Lethbridge College and Southland International Trucks will provide trades students with training opportunities, software and equipment.
Students and faculty in the college’s Crooks School of Transportation will be provided with access to Navistar International Corp. and its International dealer network’s Tech Empowerment initiative.
This initiative supplies institutions with training equipment, advice and insights into the opportunities available to aspiring technicians.
The Tech Empowerment partnership also includes the creation of a new annual Southland Heavy Equipment Apprentice Award.
