“Being involved with the Work Based Learning Program at Burlington Tech has been a truly rewarding experience for us at Tri-Angle. It's great to help young students explore their interests in Machining and Fabrication work, prior to them making a long term commitment for the future. We believe that it's absolutely essential to provide them the opportunity to walk in those shoes so they can make an informed decision about their education and career choices going forward.”
- Dylan Martell, Tri-Angle Metal Fab
