The Australian Trucking Association (ATA) has announced the winners of the 2013 Cummins South Pacific TMC scholarships.
The 2013 Cummins TMC scholarship recipients are Jake Gulliver, Mechanic for the Wymap Group; Lucas McCoombes, Workshop Foreman at Hardy’s Haulage; and Giles Kent, Apprentice Mechanic of K & S Freighters.
“Cummins South Pacific is proud to be partnered with the ATA in this valuable initiative, and we think it’s a great way to encourage our younger people in the transport industry to participate in the main technical forum each year,” said Col Baker, Cummins Automotive Sales and Customer Support Manager.
“To have our young service technicians meeting and learning from the legends of our industry is an invaluable experience. This scholarship helps young people across Australia to broaden their product knowledge, develop their skills, meet suppliers and make connections in the industry.”
According to the ATA, each scholarship recipient will receive one full delegate registration to the 2013 PACCAR & Dealer TMC, including attendance at the Castrol Awards Dinner at the Peninsula at Central Pier and the ALLRig Funhouse at the Fox Classic Car Collection, as well as accommodation.
