History of OSUIT & NAEDA
Technician Program
The program started at the university more than 10 years ago when members of the then SouthWestern Association then later the Western Equipment Dealers Association (now the North American Equipment Dealers Association) saw a growing need for more skilled technicians in their dealerships and recognized the opportunity to meet that demand through a degree program at OSUIT.
Since then, the program has continued to grow as the demand for service technicians has increased in conjunction with the advancement of equipment and technology in the farm and industrial equipment industry.
