Brevard Adult Ed Introduces Automotive and Culinary Programs
Brevard Adult Education is now offering Post-Second- ary Adult Vocational (PSAV) Programs! Brevard Adult Education in partnership and agreement with Eastern Florida State College is providing both a PSAV automotive service technology program and a culinary arts program previously offered by EFSC. We also have an agreement with our Brevard Public Schools CTE department to utilize existing automotive and culinary arts labs at our local high schools to hold
our PSAV evening courses. Our Automotive Service Technology I program started on January 17, 2018 at Satellite High School.
Classes are held three nights a week (Monday, Wednes- day and Thursday) from 4:30 PM to 9:00 PM. Mr. Ran- dy Pitts, who teaches the secondary automotive service technology classes at Satellite High School, agreed to teach our PSAV courses in the evening. Randy has over 30 years of automotive experience and is a Master ASE certified automotive technician. We are happy to wel- come Randy to our Brevard Adult Education team.
