xxxIt is our intention at RCS/AMS to offer an educational opportunity to all; students from all areas of America are prospects for our program and future programs. Due to the specialty of the Automotive Engine Machinist, the automotive industry as a whole will contribute to a large interest in our educational program.  Today’s automotive growing trend is the huge hunger for knowledge about the Automotive Performance Industry from the novice to the professional, people of all ages that want to know about engines and the Automotive Performance Industry.  The love for power and performance, it’s in everything we see, advertisers promoting some form of performance. The performance novices and professionals are hungry for knowledge and are looking for places to get educated. Television has already felt this desire and has packed the cable channels full of how to do shows, Car Shows, Hotrod Shows, Performance Accessory Shows, Race Car Fabricating Shows, NASCAR Racing, Drag Racing, Boat Racing, Off-road Racing, Monster Trucks and the list goes on and on. The people that compete or contribute to this type of industry aren’t necessarily employed in it, many times its the novice doing it for fun, having a primary job doing something else, a novice that would love to dedicate more time working in this industry, but doesn’t know were to start in getting educated.

xxxxI have had personal conversations with Automotive Engine Shops from small to large all over America and they all ask the same thing,  where can I find a good employee who wants to make a difference? The Industry is bulging at the seams with work that can not be done do to the lack of good Engine Machinists, Machinists that have the knowledge and will to learn as they grow is this industry. Shops will pay good wages for educated and willing to work employees, I know I was one of them. The old days of working your way up the ladder are over in America, you either have the knowledge or you don’t. Your first job after your education will be determined by what you have been trained to do from your education. The higher the quality of education not necessary the cost of your education, but quality will determine what your placement will be at your first job. The second job is what you did at your last job and how well you perform. The future workers of America have to realize that business owners that invest huge amounts of money into there companies are doing it for their workers as well, for they are the ones that get to operate the hundreds of thousand of dollars of worth machinery that must make a profit to first pay the employee, then the administrative expenses and hopefully a small profit for the owner who has all the responsibilities. In simple the more profit they make the more wages you may make, America needs to be educated first and have the desire to work in order to keep it strong. People say there aren’t any good jobs out there in the automotive industry, sure for the uneducated, businesses require educated and talented people in the modern America, they can not afford to train an employee for 2 years, or afford to have the employee leave after training, you as an American can not afford to take 10 years to learn your trade on your own either. The required skills needed in today’s trades may change faster than you can keep up, were additional training or a person that has many different types of skills and training will make a difference and excel through life.

xxxxIt is true that most of our students will come from other states and will no doubt go back to their home towns looking for employment.  There are many related jobs that are created form the Automotive Engine Machinist that are laced throughout the Automotive Repair Industry as a whole.
