Funding: The Atlantic GM Service Managers Club agrees to provide a $500 initiation fee per GM Dealership to Wayne Community College in order to 1) establish a budget in which Wayne Community College can use at its discretion for any financial requirement directly related to said training program and 2) establish a listing of paid dealer members eligible for GM dealer technician training at Wayne Community College. Technicians attending any GM STC Hands-On class at Wayne Community College will pay $125 per day per technician per class in order to 1) maintain the established budget 2) cover any related costs encountered during the class. Wayne Community College GM ASEP will provide no money to this program. General Motors Corporation will provide no money to this program. Financial statements: Can be obtained by contacting the GM Training Coordinator at Wayne Community College. Equipment, tools, supplies and facilities: Equipment, tools and supplies provided for GM STC Hands-On classes at Wayne Community College will be obtained from existing inventory found within the Wayne Community College GM ASEP program if at all possible. If any additional equipment, tools or supplies are needed, Wayne Community College will obtain them at the discretion of the GM Training Coordinator. Classroom and lab facilities will be provided by Wayne Community College. GM STC requirements: This program receives support from the Southeast Regional GM Training Center Headquarters in Alpharetta, Georgia. It is the position of the Southeast Regional Training Manager that this program will aid the local dealerships in obtaining the required GM Common Training standards in a more timely and financially sound manner. GM STC requires that the GM ASEP instructor most qualified at Wayne Community College perform the GM STC Hands-On class. The instructor must be current with the GM Common Training Standards as per the requirements of the IAGMASEP Standards Committee. In addition, the instructor appointed to facilitate the GM STC Hands-On class must attend the given Hands-On class at the Regional Training Center in order to receive necessary instructor training. GM STC Staff will determine if Wayne Community College GM ASEP is capable of performing the GM-Hands on class prior to the class.

Additional Non-certification courses: Non-Certification courses will be provided by Wayne Community College GM ASEP for the Atlantic Service Managers Club at the request of The Club members.

Wayne Community College will notify the GM Service Manager Club when a date is open for a given class. Wayne Community College will schedule as far ahead as possible but all dates are tentative due to scheduling conflicts not anticipated. The DSMs for this area and/or the steering committee will notify the GM Training Coordinator at Wayne Community College when a list of technicians eligible for a class is compiled. The GM Training Coordinator will then send one "Course Enrollment Notification" (see attached) to the dealer service Manager via fax or e-mail. Prior to the date of the class, the GM Training Coordinator will send one "GM Dealer Technician Enrollment Reminder" (see attached) via fax or e-mail. The correct e-mail address and fax number supplied to Wayne Community College is the responsibility of the dealer enrolling in the course.
