This collaboration has already led to many opportunities for students to partner with Tesla, as they complete their education at LMC and start great jobs after graduating. A total of 66 LMC students and alumni from five majors attended a company-hosted information session in early December. By the end of that month, 28 students applied for jobs, and seven had already accepted job offers! <span class=\"Apple-converted-space\">\u00a0<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-family: 'Open Sans';\">Tesla initially reached out to LMC to learn more about our Electrical &amp; Instrumentation Technology (ETEC) program, which is part of the in-demand advanced manufacturing sector that also include Process Technology (PTEC), Welding, and Automotive Technology. The company already employs several LMC graduates and wants to strengthen their workforce pipeline by hiring more trained students straight from the College. Qualified LMC applicants are guaranteed to receive a screening interview \u2013 in fact, Tesla built a special application page just for LMC students. Tesla is also engaging with LMC faculty to participate in program advisory boards and share ideas for more real-world projects to embed in classes.<span class=\"Apple-converted-space\">\u00a0<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-family: 'Open Sans';\">The PTEC, ETEC, and Auto Tech programs committed a total of over $57,000 in federal Perkins funds to equipment upgrades this year, and LMC is investing over $1 million of California\u2019s Strong Workforce Program funds to remodel the lab that is shared across all of our Vocational Technology programs.<span class=\"Apple-converted-space\">\u00a0<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-family: 'Open Sans';\"><span style=\"font-family: 'Open Sans Bold';\">Ricky Baeza <\/span>\u2013 a Tesla recruiter and LMC alumnus, said, \u201cAs part of Tesla, I\u2019m delighted to be able to share potential opportunities with an innovative and industry-leading company to a community of alumni and students enrolled in great programs.
