Lincoln Tech, 901 Hadley Rd., South Plainfield, NJ 07080

The AED Foundation and Lincoln Tech are moving forward with accreditation of Lincoln Tech’s Diesel Truck & Heavy Equipment Technology Program in South Plainfield, NJ!

The AED Foundation addresses professional education and workforce development in the industry. This includes AED Foundation Accreditation of diesel-equipment technology college programs. The AED Foundation has recently formed a partnership with Lincoln Tech of South Plainfield to accredit their diesel-equipment technology program.

Please join AED’s Senior VP/CFO Jason Blake, Director of Education at Lincoln Tech, Tim O’Connor, and myself at a dealership principals meeting to discuss the next steps in the process and what equipment dealers like you can do to support this effort.

Agenda:

• Introduction
• Lincoln Tech Programs and Capabilities
• Proposed Program
• Program Requirements – AED Foundation Technical Standards Publication

• Industry Partnership – dealers and school working together to move accreditation efforts forward

• Possibilities for funding the Construction Equipment program – School and Dealer resources

• Timeline: Commitment by dealers and school to move forward and explore an AEDF Accreditation initiative

• Next step would be “gap” analysis; where the program is vs. where it needs to be to meet AEDF Accreditation Standards; two service managers from dealers and two instructors from school

• Questions
