Fort Scott Community College offers a three-semester certificate or two-year Associate in Applied Science degree.  Through the program, students learn in three different settings: on-campus in the classroom, on-campus in hands-on laboratory activities, and internships at a John Deere sponsoring dealership. Each specialized subject is studied on-campus in the classroom and in the laboratory. Students spend a significant time in an internship at a sponsoring John Deere dealership to apply the subjects learned on-campus in real-world situations.

Because considerable time is spent working at the dealership, this program requires students to have a sponsoring John Deere dealership. Students can request assistance in locating a sponsoring dealer from one of the FSCC John Deere Tech instructors. The main responsibility of the dealer is to provide training-related employment for the student during the work experience periods.
