NPC MARINE PROGRAM PARTNERS WITH YAMAHA
Hot Springs, Arkansas – The National Park College (NPC) Marine Technology program
has entered into a fourth partnership with Yamaha. Last month, the program announced
new agreements with Indmar Marine, Mercury Marine and BPR Evinrude to expand student
access to training materials and equipment.
Students will have access to the complete online Yamaha training program, as well
as hands-on service skills training at the Yamaha headquarters in Kennesaw, Georgia.
The agreement with Yamaha will also allow students to use online parts ordering and
communication systems, service and owner’s manuals, and technical bulletins produced
by Yamaha.
Program Director, Delmar Hunter said, “We are thrilled to be able to expose our students
to such a wide variety of training materials. Their value in the workplace is increased
exponentially with every partnership we make.”
