Reputation is the only thing that matters in this industry. That’s why we’re asking you directly.
Look back over the past five years. The trouble finding qualified people to work. Equipment sent out for repairs that came back overcharged and underdelivered. Partners that didn’t deliver. A hiring pipeline that doesn’t exist.
Orange Collar Academy is bringing standards to an industry in need.
With your support, we will expand our training programs, operational resources, and workforce development. In return, you join a growing network of organizations working to bring this industry the talent pipeline it actually needs. Our students perform under instructor oversight, providing you with affordable, high-quality repair work while building real-world skills on real equipment.
