The local Porsche dealership is new with a modern facility, offering students the opportunity to become certified Porsche technicians in the future.

"We're growing here at Porsche San Luis Obispo, and we're going to need qualified automotive technicians in the future. And so, hopefully there's a couple of potential [new Porsche technicians] in the group today."
