Ohio Technical College Opens The Edelbrock Performance Academy

The Edelbrock Performance Academy at OTC provides students with the skills needed to efficiently increase a vehicle's performance through planning, installation and modification of high performance engine components, superchargers, nitrous, fuel injection systems and more. "The course is offered to advanced OTC students and features training from the school's High Performance and Racing program.

"The students will break down a number of the parts on their own and will work on actual vehicles from configuration and installation to dyno-testing and tuning.

"It is essential for the students to learn and understand the origins of Edelbrock and SEMA. This is a true, hands on course that's based on learning through discovery. So much so, the Edelbrock Performance Academy will share a resemblance to Vic's own garage - right down to the photos on the walls," said Bill Abbott, head instructor of the Edelbrock Performance Academy at OTC.

"Students gain an advantage in the workforce by completing the Edelbrock Performance Academy by receiving hands-on training using the latest products from Edelbrock," said Christi Edelbrock.

The Edelbrock Performance Academy was originated when Christi Edelbrock, Vice President of Business Development at Edelbrock, and Justin Brenner, Director of Corporate Development for OTC, met at SEMA to create a concept of a training course that directly teaches the manufacturer's catalog product line.

OTC and Edelbrock spent months diligently developing the ideal curriculum and facility to help today's student technician.

Upon completion of the Edelbrock Academy program, the students receive a certificate signifying their specialized, high-performance training.
