The District School Committee at Old Colony Regional Vocational Technical High School is pleased to announce the continued accreditation of the Power Mechanics Program by the Equipment & Engine Training Council. The Council is located in Wisconsin.

The Massachusetts Department of Education is anxious to have Career and Technical Programs accredited by third party national boards of certification. Old Colony’s accreditation is in keeping with this state initiative and, more importantly, serves as a positive credential for students who successfully complete the Power Mechanics Program.

Staff member, Carl Hoines, who is responsible for the certification, is available to respond to questions concerning Old Colony’s national certification.
