A group of Morton College's Automotive Technology students worked the floor at the Chicago Auto Show on February 21.
Look for the Morton College Automotive Technology Department at the 101st edition of the Chicago Auto Show at Chicago’s McCormick Place.
Morton College Automotive Technology instructors Dave Hostert and Don Sykora along with students Alex Acurio, Jose Dominguez, Pavol Jurcisin, Nicolas Martinez, Octavio Perez, Emiliano Puga, Daniel Villanueva and Mark Yunker were at the show working in the Automotive Youth Educational Systems (AYES)/Chevy Cobalt “Tuner” Booth in the North Hall at McCormick Place in Chicago.
“It is a great vehicle for Morton College to promote automotive education to those attending the show,” Hostert said.
Sykora added that students are taking part in a hands-on demonstration of putting replacement parts on Chevrolet vehicles.
AYES is a partnership among participating automotive manufacturers, participating dealers, and selected high schools/tech prep schools. The organization encourages young people to consider satisfying careers in retail automotive service, and prepare them for entry-level career positions or advanced studies in automotive technology.
