College of New Caledonia will train technicians
After working 45 years as a Red Seal heavy-duty mechanic/technician, Jim Niessen is nearing the end of his career and he recognizes there’s a revolution coming to the trucking industry.
“I’m 65, so I’m looking at another three of four years on the wrenches yet. My days in the industry are a lot shorter, so we’ll probably let the younger guys take all that training and they can start from the ground up.” Plans for the addition of the hydrogen bay were revealed Friday morning at an event to commemorate the merger of Prince George Western Star with Prince George Freightliner.
“We invest a lot on training, and what this means is an opportunity for folks to start thinking about what’s going to start happening over the next couple decades as they think through from a career perspective where they want to work,” said Graham. “It allows folks to realize we are moving to a greener future and as the decade progresses they will have those credentials in pocket.”
