Top of Their Class - American Implement's Technicians Achieve their John Deere Certified Technician Awards
Our Service Team celebrated the accomplishments of some of our technicians who were among the first handful of technicians across the country to meet John Deere’s new John Deere Certified Technician training requirements launched this past summer. This achievement represents the technicians’ countless hours of training and American Implement’s dedication to employee development.
To achieve this certification, each technician completed three different learning paths that built upon one another and contained 56 learning items including web-based, live virtual classes and in-person classes and several assessments. David Bostic (Service Development Manager- John Deere) made the trip out from John Deere corporate to help recognize and celebrate these technicians' achievements. He spoke to how impressive it was as an organization American Implement had so many technicians completing this certification so quickly.
