Episode Synopsis

Only two years after launching
the collision repair program at Fayetteville Technical Community
College in North Carolina, program director Paul Gage’s first
graduating class will have a 100 percent placement rate—each
student choosing between multiple job offers. The school is
revolutionizing the method in which upcoming technicians are
trained, and through its involvement with the military, has found a
unique way to bring more, capable and motivated young people into
the industry.
