The Bahamas Technical & Vocational Institute (BTVI) continues to strengthen its relationships with Martin-Senour Paints and Automotive & Industrial Distributors (AID), as evidenced by the recent donation of a high-tech Tech Base Mixing System for use in the institute's Automotive Programme. The donation, which was facilitated by Juan Cardenas, District Sales Manager, Martin-Senour Company and Marty Smith, Paint Technician at A.I.D., is the latest example of the recent partnerships between BTVI, A.I.D and Martin Senour.
“A.I.D has been a valued partner for many years,” said Don Bain, Head of Department for the Automotive Programme at BTVI. “In particular, Jason Watson, Manager at A.I.D has been there for our programme whenever we needed his advice or assistance.” “They help us with resources and we give them every opportunity to hire our best students.”
On August 26-27th, Martin-Senour Paints will use the institute as a resource for training and providing workshop for paint technicians in the area. "This is a wonderful opportunity for us, too," said Sean Adderley, Public Relations Officer. "Not only has Martin Senour Paints donated a Tech Base Mixing System, but our students and instructors also have the chance to participate in their factory training here on campus. They will be able to learn first-hand the latest in technology from the manufacturers themselves."
With this partnership, students graduating from BTVI's automotive programme will have general knowledge of Martin-Senour Paints brand, which will make them highly employable as prospective technicians.
Companies like A.I.D and Martin-Senour Paints are instrumental in helping us," said Dr. Iva Dahl, Manager/Consultant at BTVI. "And this contribution will be a tremendous help to the students."
