Congratulation to Steven Beachy, a recent graduate in our diesel mechanics program from Commodore Perry. He was one of 75 students who applied for an apprenticeship program at Cleveland Brothers Caterpillar. Steven was 1 of 10 students who was then accepted into Cat’s apprenticeship program. His apprenticeship includes a $10,000 tool allowance, paid schooling through Caterpillar and he will work full-time in the shop, training with veteran mechanics when not in school. A special thanks to Chad Stokes who took the time to come to MCCC and present him with this news and his instructor Mr. Toth for preparing him and helping him through the application process. Congratulation again and best of luck to you Steven!
