Polaris to Open Training Facility in Georgia
Polaris Industries announced plans to establish a dealer training center at Dekalb Technical College in Clarkston, Ga., near Atlanta. The facility, which will continue to house the college’s Motorcycle Service Technology certification program, also will accommodate Polaris dealer training courses year-round.
Through Polaris’ Master Service Dealer Training Program, dealers from across North America spend four to five days in training courses for servicing Polaris ATVs, Ranger UTVs and Victory Motorcycles. Dekalb Technical College’s ease of access, location and passion for industry partnerships were major considerations for Polaris to locate there, company officials said.
Polaris currently conducts dealer training courses at Central Tech, Drumright, Okla.; the State University of New York (SUNY), Canton, N.Y.; and at Polaris headquarters in Medina, Minn.
By hosting the program on its campus, Dekalb Technical College will have access to Polaris products for use in its own certification program.
