Olympic Peninsula Chapter Zoom 2/15/22 @ 6pm
Join us on Zoom tonight February 15th @ 6pm
Everyone is welcome!!!
Where did all of the technicians go?
According to the Bureau of Labor Statistics, there’s a problem. Unlike other industries that have a consistent pipeline of talent, there’s very few people to fill the open positions in the automotive industry.
And while the technician shortage has been a point of worry for many years, the pandemic exacerbated it. Pre-COVID projections by TechForce suggested just over 15,000 new technicians would be needed in 2021. That jumped to 25,000 after COVID as the industry, just like every other industry, experienced “The Great Resignation.”
What are you doing to find your next technician. We cannot play musical chairs with technicians, they are all eventually all going to retire, we need to be invested in developing technicians.
Join us via Zoom at 6pm on February 15th for our Olympic Peninsula chapter meeting. We are going to have a panel discussion with 4 leaders in the education, training and job placement fields, Wayne Bridges (ITAC), Lucas Snyder (West Sound Tech), Walt Cummins (ASE) and Dave Montgomery (Car People job placement agency). We will be discussing what it is going to take to help slow this trend down and reverse it, why do technicians leave the industry or move from job to job, or what makes them stay where they are at. What instructors are seeing and hearing from the next generation of technicians and what you need to do to grow your own rockstar.
