MADISON, IN — To show its continued commitment to education and training, Grote Industries, a designer and manufacturer of vehicle safety systems, said it will donate three scholarships to the Global Automotive Aftermarket Symposium (GAAS) in the spring of 2005. The scholarships will go to vo-tech students who wish to pursue careers in the automotive and heavy-duty truck aftermarket.
GAAS is an annual educational two-day conference, which brings together various industry executives to examine the issues affecting the aftermarket and the trends influencing its future. All of the net proceeds from the event go toward funding industry college level and vocational scholarships.
“The aftermarket is always in need of skilled and educated young technicians, so we are happy to help those students who want to pursue a career in our industry,” said Grote Chairman Bill Grote. “Donating these scholarships will be an excellent way to give back to the industry and help shape our future industry leaders.”
