Car West Auto Body partners with Mission Valley ROP and Silicon Valley ROP schools to enrich the auto body program for students in the Bay Area.   In efforts to be proactive with its potential future workforce, Car West has hosted field trips to its facilities and created a mentor program to connect with students.   The field trips consists a day of touring the collision repair facility and a meet and greet lunch with Car West’s President and CEO, Craig Moe.

“Cars are changing just as fast as technology and Car West NEEDS educated and well trained students to carry on the legacy of leading exceptional auto body repair work in the industry.  You are our future and we want to empower you to succeed,” Craig Moe shares with the students at a field trip held at the Fremont facility. 

The tours enable students to learn the latest technology and processes currently trending in the auto collision industry.  Car West offers its support and commitment to the ROP programs as a natural extension of the ongoing commitment to promoting education in the community.  The six location collision repair facility plans on being an active member of the MVROP Auto Body Advisory Committee, giving advice and guidance on curriculum and industry standards.  The anticipation is that the ongoing partnership with the school programs will help develop and grow an organic workforce for the area.  Car West Auto Body strongly supports the Mission Valley ROP and Silicon Valley Transportation program, and commit to providing all possible resources to ensure continued success with education.
