ATC gave me a chance to first of all get into the profession by learning about the industry. The second part was they sent me on the practicum and it gave me practical knowledge of the dealerships. I was able to do the job almost right away. I have been here 9 years now and it's thanks to ATC.

Fixed Operations Graduate
After the program I got a great offer from a new Harley Davidson dealership. I organised the department from what I learned from the program. The Fixed Operations Program gave me the skills and confidence to do a job that requires everything needed in the industry. I would recommend this program to anyone interested.
