- THE PROBLEM
Training new talent is hard. Let us help you.
Your last tech left, and you’ve hired a replacement. Their first few weeks decide whether they become a productive, engaged tech or another expensive restart. What if you could quickly learn the information you need to know about your new hire and train them to be truck-ready in one week?

Hiring is playing in the dark
You’re unsure of the skills and capacity of new hires.
Training is inefficient
Most pre-apprentice programs take too long, lack focus, and teach too much theory.
Ramping takes months
Using your busy and productive senior techs to help ramp a new hire is expensive and draining.

A fraction of what year one already costs you
The Department of Labor puts a new hire's fully-loaded first year cost near $30,000: ride-along wages, lost productivity and a senior tech's diverted billable hours.
Job-ready in 40 hours, not a semester
We teach the tasks a tech is handed in year one and nothing else. Monday to Friday evenings plus one Saturday, so your board never changes.
Traditional pre-apprentice 9 to 24 mo
We run the bootcamp. You keep the schedule.
No curriculum to write, no lab to build, no instructor to pull of the truck. Training runs inside fully-equipped Ferguson locations near your crews.
