This morning I spoke at the Automotive Business School of Canada.
It was great to meet you, class! Clever of you to specialize in this industry, an ever-growing one with gobs of money behind it, an endless number of verticals so there’s a place for whatever your passion, and best of all, people who are passionate, intelligent and industrious.
To those contemplating getting a degree in anything auto-related, this is your school.
Choose between a 2 or 4 year program, both of which boast an ridiculously high 90% grad placement rate over the past 28 years. And it uses a lot of experiential learning, like how the class annually hosts the largest outdoor Auto Show in North America.
The curriculum for this class features a weekly guest speaker. Last week was the President of Audi Canada, this week was Jim Kenzie and I, whom you’ve met before.
Students – links to things I touched on:
– my weekly column, ‘Keri on Driving’ here, the car section of this blog here, and my section at the newspaper here
– my issue with autonomous cars here
– a car runs on the CAN bus network here
– have a job for life by specializing in auto security here
– why I’m not a fan of hybrids here
– and really – just be prepared to out-work everyone and you’ll do great!
– no, wait, one more thing – I wasn’t checking my phone, I was checking the time, well, expect for this one time haha
Thanks for having me today,
email me anytime with questions
and good luck to you!
