Collision Repair Education Foundation Director of Development Brandon Eckenrode noted, “We are very pleased with our initial pilot of the collision student resume database and this will be an ongoing effort at the end of each school semester to gather the contact information for those students seeking industry employment. We will then be sharing this information with our donors as a thank you for the continued support as we work towards assisting collision school programs and their ability to graduate quality, productive, and efficient entry-level staff ready for employment.”
Moving forward, at the end of each fall and spring semester, students seeking industry-employment will have the opportunity to submit their information to the database. The Education Foundation will work towards tracking the number of students who are hired by the industry and anticipates greater student participation with the resume database in the future.
Companies looking to gain access to the collision student resume database and join the Education Foundation in supporting high school and college collision school programs should contact Education Foundation Director of Development, Brandon Eckenrode at 847.463.5244 or [email protected].
