There is no denying that companies with mentorship programs have a more confident, engaged, and better-trained workforce—leading to overall more productive and profitable businesses.
Within the auto, diesel, and collision industries, we know the first couple of years in the shop is a crucial time in a new technician’s career. A well-structured mentorship program can help set new technicians up for a long, successful career in the industry and within your shop.
Throughout the month of July, we will be sharing content, hosting events, and working with our clients to help them build, improve, and promote their technician mentorship programs.
