“Team Industries, Inc. has had great success with the coop programs offered by the area high schools. Many of the students have become full time employees and have even grown into leadership roles at Team Industries. The coop program has also been an excellent work/school environment for students going onto the Technical Colleges.”
-Mike Schmidt, VP Manufacturing for Team Industries
