Mechatronics Instructor Needed - Kent, MI

Hello all!

I attend a tech center called KCTC here in the Grand Rapids Michigan area. They are looking for an instructor for a Mechatronics program. They approached me because of my involvement in FIRST to see if I knew anybody that might be able to fill the role. (Just so you know, they are also considering starting a team at KCTC, so there is a great opportunity to be involved with a new team as well!) The information about the job is below, copied from an email. If you would like me to forward the original email, let me know your email address and I can do that. If you have any questions feel free to respond here or PM me and I will get your questions answered. Or you can contact KCTC directly. Thank you!
