went to garden city community college through their John Deere program. You come out with a 2 year associate's degree and a guaranteed job. You actually have to be sponsored by a John Deere dealership to go there or they won't accept you. They teach you a good amount and my teachers were very informative and always willing to help. Also we had two 3 month internships that they sent you back to your dealership to work to help pay for school and reinforce what they have taught you. Also they take you on a week trip to visit the john deere factories(and strip clubs in our case) which was pretty awesome. I would suggest it to anybody. Also some dealerships will pay for tools and school if you agree to work for them for x amount of time. I actually get a 2500 dollar a year bonus for 5 years while I work for them.

I went to uti, learned some things there. Slept in most of m6 classes, graduated with a 4.0 and perfct scores in multiple courses.
Picked up a local job at the walmart distrobution center, making 23an hour and I have been there 6 months, I am master truck ase certified, and have a five auto. Certifications. Al of those tests i have taken in the past year. Walmart does pay for certs. Not bad, but not great. I can do much better. |

corsicana has a john deere school to. One of the guys I work with was sent there and he's not to bad of a mechanic. They are both 2 year school. I know Caterpillar also has some schools like that. I know for sure of one at South Plains College In Levelland, Tx. Plus you're right by lubbock which happens to have some pretty good looking girls since there's 3 good size colleges in the area. I went down there to visit the school and I liked it, it just happened that John Deere gave me a deal first. I'm not sure if case has one or not. Cat and JD are both 2 year schools with associates degrees. I can try to answer any more questions you might have.
