Craftsman clads BCIT Trailer

Through the years, Craftsman has contributed over $100,000 in work and vehicles to the BCIT School of Transportation. One example is this 22-foot trailer which urges viewers: "Put your career in gear." We donated the graphics and the 4x4 Ford F150 pickup that pulls it, and provide ongoing support for the tech program for the School of Transportation’s $100,000 race car driven by Al Unser Jr to second place in the 1988 CART Champ car series. Students in eight BCIT automotive programs use the race car to work with prototype technologies that will eventually be integrated into the cars of the future.

The trailer travels to schools and events throughout the province to create awareness for the dozens of BCIT School of Transportation programs aimed at  future aerospace technicians, marine engineers, automotive collision repair technicians and many more careers.

In addition, this year Craftsman is contributing $25,000 to the sponsorship of the BCIT golf tournament.
