John Deere Team Scholars program urged for expansion
A bipartisan Iowa group urged expanding the Accelerated Career Education program that partners students, community colleges, and industry. Seventeen students graduate May from the Des Moines Area Community College welding and robotics program, with John Deere offering full-time jobs to all grads. The effort seeks $5 million to cover operating costs, despite a prior veto by Gov. Vilsack.
