The Great Lakes Boat Building School received a truckload of educational and technical supplies along with Ilmor marine engines from Ilmor Engineering to further expand hands-on learning for Marine/Service Technology students at GLBBS. In additional, GLBBS faculty are becoming certified by Ilmor professionals to facilitate the delivery of “Ilmor University” curriculum at GLBBS.

“Our graduates are encountering Ilmor’s outstanding offering of marine engines in their work at marine dealers around the country. So much so, that several are being sent by employers for Ilmor training at the Mooresville facility to enhance their professional development,” says Nikki Storey, president of Great Lakes Boat Building School. “An educational partnership with Ilmor Engineering has been on our wish list for quite some time because our students need to know how to work on their equipment as they encounter it on the job. The Ilmor team has been absolutely phenomenal to work with and we are blown away by their generosity and support. They are just great people to grow our training alongside.”

Earlier in the year, Ilmor hosted the entire GLBBS student body along with instructors and staff at its Plymouth headquarters.

“We have enjoyed the opportunity to interact with Nikki and the members of her leadership team and are impressed with their industry-leading curriculum in preparing students with real-world technical expertise,” adds Mike Lindberg, vice president of Marine at Ilmor Engineering.  “Donating the supplies was the least we could do to showcase our belief in not only the school, but its students and what they’ve already been able to produce. We’ve worked diligently on an Ilmor program of study to coincide with the donated materials that we’re certain will make the students even more sought after upon their graduation.”
