¶¶Ņõpro’s Greg Johnson Earns Master Level Certification with EETC

May 24, 2019

The students of ¶¶Ņõpro’s popular Powersports program have the opportunity to learn from a continually-improving professional, Instructor Greg Johnson. Johnson recently completed the necessary requirements to become Master level with the Equipment and Engine Training Council [EETC] after years of additional training.

Gaining Master-level certification with the EETC was not an easy feat. ā€œThe process helps the individual to apply what is learned and experienced in the trade,ā€ Johnson, who has 33 years in the industry, explained. Despite his long years of expertise, he frequently encounters new challenges – and shares those lessons with his students. ā€œI learn something new daily, and I use that knowledge to educate students about ā€˜real world’ situations,ā€ Johnson said.

This isn’t the first Master-level certification that Johnson has received. He’s been at the Master level with many other manufacturers for years, including Stihl, Briggs and Stratton, and others. ā€œI felt this was the next logical step,ā€ he explained.

ā€œHaving a nationally recognized program with the EETC adds legitimacy to the program and all the training that the students experience,ā€ Johnson said.

ā€œThis is a great achievement and I know personally how challenging the certification tests are, so passing all six tests highlights the proficiency that Gregory brings to ¶¶Ņõpro,ā€ wrote Erik Sides, Executive Director of EETC, in a recognition letter sent to the college.
