Episode Details

De Anza College just launched a groundbreaking Tesla partnership, launching a 480-hour hands-on engineering training program designed to prep students for real factory roles—safety, mechanics, electrical systems, and troubleshooting included. The first cohort of 15 Tesla-selected technicians kicked off this week, part of De Anza’s Contract Education model that tailors training to industry needs. This isn’t a one-off: the college’s recent NSF and Department of Labor grants have fueled major initiatives like the Silicon Valley Advanced Manufacturing Program, aimed at diversifying the manufacturing workforce by supporting underrepresented groups—including Latino, Black, and female students—while building a pipeline for high-demand tech jobs in the region.
