In these turbulent and uncertain economic times, education programs ought to focus on finding their graduates jobs. Over two (2) years ago, PAT School was founded on this exact philosophy, by a Drexel University graduate who believes in our youth and families to receive a technology driven education so that they can secure great technical careers and jobs. Now, PAT's growth is fueled by employees who have graduated from Universities and Colleges like Allegheny, Temple, Cheyney, Lincoln Technical Institute, Community College, VVP Engineering in India, Stevens Technical Institute, and others. The school’s flagship programs (our Automotive Repair Program and our Manufacturing Technician Program) focus on hands-on technology training. The only way to have sustainable employment in the 21st century is to know how to interact with technology. So that’'s what we teach. In the automotive field, increasingly technicians need to use computers to diagnose and solve engine problems. Today's leading repair garages are looking more and more like computer labs than auto repair shops. Accordingly, manufacturing and automation, both are increasing the work of automated robots, high speed machines, super fast machine controller, and material handling systems. Employment in this field is largely secured by being trained and skilled in technology repair, quality, diagnosis, validation, profitability, growth, innovation and world class dominance.
