AGCO Announces NexTECH Program at South Georgia Technical College to Train Tomorrow’s Ag Technicians

AGCO Corporation has announced the launch of its NexTECH program at South Georgia Technical College (SGTC) to train the next generation of agricultural technicians. This program aims to address the growing need for skilled technicians capable of maintaining advanced agricultural machinery. The NexTECH program will be integrated into SGTC's existing diesel technology curriculum, providing students with hands-on training specific to AGCO's equipment, including brands like Fendt and Massey Ferguson.

Students will have access to AGCO training aids, powertrain components, and other critical resources used by AGCO’s North American Aftersales teams. The program targets students with a passion for diesel technology, STEM fields, and problem-solving.

AGCO's NexTECH program reflects the company's commitment to building a pipeline of highly trained technicians to support its customers and dealers. The initiative is expected to offer students exciting career opportunities in a field that is increasingly reliant on cutting-edge technology.
