Parkland - Advanced Applicator Technician Program

One of our partners, Parkland College, has shared information with IFCA about their Advanced Applicator Technician Program.  There are several upcoming events listed below that we'd like to pass on to membership to promote this great opportunity.
 
Advanced Applicator Technician Program. 
  • This is for anyone who would like to earn cash now, have their schooling paid for, and have a guaranteed job at graduation.  The natural progression would be to enroll students right out of high school into this Ag Retailer sponsored program.  Once again, this is open to anyone who would like to sign up for it.   For more information, contact Jerry Lighty at Parkland College in the Ag Tech Department at 217-508-2756
Career Exploration night is September 20th from 4-6. 
  • This event is to help currently enrolled students at Parkland meet with employers and find internships and future employment.  However, everyone is always welcome at Parkland.  This would be a great opportunity for high schoolers, anyone looking for a career change, or anyone looking to go back to school.
Ag Day at Parkland.  September 30th 12:30-3:30. 
  • This event is geared towards high schoolers and anyone else who would like to attend.
