The ASE Education Foundation recently partnered with International Trucks and IC Bus to provide a special training session at a Navistar training center for 10 instructors from ASE-accredited post-secondary medium and heavy truck programs.
“We thank our partners at International Trucks and IC Bus for their continued support of the ASE Education Foundation and awarding these incredible training opportunities,” said Mike Coley, president of the ASE Education Foundation. “These Navistar scholarships are a prime example of the support received from the industry.”
The program provided five days of hands-on training at Navistar’s OEM training center in Woodridge, Illinois, as well as a $1,000 scholarship to cover travel expenses.
