T he goal of the motorcycle technician program is to prepare students to work in the increasingly sophisticated and complex field of motorcycle technology through a combination of classroom instruction and hands-on skill development. This certificate program is made possible through a unique partnership with Seacoast Harley Davidson, where the classes are held. This allows students to learn in a real working environment, observe active master technicians, all in a state-of-the-art lab using current motorcycles and equipment. Technicians must be able to work with electronic diagnos- tic equipment, read and understand technical manuals, investigate to find the cause of a problem, and connect effectively with the customer. Students will use a variety of tools, including both manual and high-tech equipment, to assess, identify problems, and perform repairs. Great Bay Community College’s MotorcycleMaintenance Course OFFERED THROUGH PARTNERSHIP WITH NHADA MEMBER Al Contois, Owner of Seacoast Harley-Davidson, talks about the unique partnership that he has with Great Bay Community College (GBCC).
