Kawasaki Donates $340,000 of Equipment to New NH Powersports Program

This January, Kawasaki donated $340,000 worth of equipment to Manchester Community College who recently launched a Powersports Technician Certificate Program. The generous donation included multiple motors, 3 side x sides, 6 motorcycles, and 3 jet skis. This top-of-the-line equipment is a great asset to the program and will help prepare students for careers in this growing industry.

PARTNER SPOTLIGHT

George Mullin, Owner of Souhegan Valley Motorsports played an integral part in connecting Kawasaki representatives with the college and delivering the equipment. Brian Fugate, Field Service Manager of Kawasaki, has been a huge help in making this happen and will continue to provide support and resources to the new program.

It is so important that this program get up and running because there is a great demand in the industry for qualified powersports technicians.

- George Mullin, Owner, Souhegan Valley Motorsports

The certificate program is just about to wrap up its first year but has been in the works for quite some time. It is designed to develop highly skilled work-ready technicians by combining classroom instruction with industry-relevant hands-on training as well as on-the-job training to prepare graduates for careers.

We have been planning for this program for almost 15 years and we were excited to get it started this year. We want to thank Kawasaki for their generous donation.

- Marc Bellerose, Automotive Technologies Department Chair

MCC is planning a grand opening in July which will be a great opportunity to acknowledge all who have played a part in getting the program up and running.

If you or someone you know is interested in Powersports and would like to turn it into a career, there is still time to register for the Fall!
