Ottawa, Ontario – One lucky school could be the recipient of a brand new CTR7 Spot Welder, generously donated by Car-O-Liner® as part of the Skills Canada Collision Repair Program, directed by Skills/Compétences Canada.
Valued at approximately $24,000 (USD), a spot welder of this calibre is expected to be a most welcome upgrade for eligible post-secondary colleges, polytechnic or technical institutes, creating an additional training opportunity for students enrolled in a collision repair technician program, according to Tuesday’s press release.
“We are delighted to partner with the Skills Canada Collision Repair Program,” said collision sales manager for Car-O-Liner North America, Doug Bortz.
“Engaging bright minds to take on challenges that equip them with the knowledge to repair modern vehicles fitted with greater levels of technology is of the utmost importance. The foundation of proper repair procedures is paramount for the function of automobiles and the safety of their passengers. Combining the World’s greatest young collision repair talents with our cutting-edge technology will drive the skill in the coming years.”
Schools that do not win the prize will still be eligible to purchase one of ten spot welders at a significantly reduced rate, according to the press release.
Registration for this giveaway is open now until Nov. 30 with the winning school to be contacted on Dec. 14. Training and setup for the unit will be provided by Car-O-Liner® in early 2021.
Interested institutions can reach out to Skills Canada Collision Repair Program director Leanne Jeffries for application forms.
