I am looking at going back to school here in Orlando to become a Marine Technician (boat monkey LOL) and the school I am considering is UTI (Universal Technical Institute) here in Orlando.
Anyone ever train here? How busy are the boat mechanics in your area?
Here in FL, especailly on the coast, it can take up to 3 months to get a boat into the marina for service or work. Most of the research I have done shows a need for more techs out there. I was just wondering about your area.
I am very burned out on my line of work, I have been in it since 1995, and I would like a trade I enjoy and could apply all over the country. The school is 51 weeks, 5 days a week, 5 hours a day but they offer night classes so I can work full time and school at night. Going to be a rough year with lots of coffee.
I was just looking for your 2.5 cents.
