Thinking About a Technical Career?
Evergreen Offers Two Paths

A good candidate would be someone who:

• has completed their primary education
• wants to continue their academic education
• wants to earn an AA degree at the State certified college
• wants to earn while they learn
• wants to develop skills in demand "world wide"
• wants to jump on a technical career path

The Program

Evergreen sponsors students in the JD TECH program, a 2 year course with a specialized curriculum designed in partnership with Walla Walla Community College, John Deere Co. and participating John Deere Dealers resulting in an AA Degree and certification in the following areas:

• Hydraulics
• Engine Diagnosis/Repair
• Planting Equipment
• Electrical/Electronics
• Harvesting Equipment
• Precision Farming (GPS)

Management Courses

Management courses are divided into two types:

• Service Management courses that deal with activities of operational management, marketing management and employee and customer relations that are specific to a John Deere Service Manager
• The Management EDUCATE courses are leadership-management courses that bring together and explore management skills and styles for the Dealership management team

Each Individual has a "Training Plan"

• Training plans are built to match employees' desires and company requirements
• John Deere uses these plans to identify training needs and help develop the curriculum for training
• Evergreen uses these plans to help "track" and "schedule" training events
