2026 Vincennes University JD Tech Program Graduation

On March 6, 2026, the Castongia Tractor team celebrated three young men who completed the John Deere Tech Program at Vincennes University. During this two-year program, Austin, Blayne, and Henry earned their Associate's degrees, and also became Level 2 certified John Deere technicians. It’s a unique opportunity that allows students to have classroom experience and experience within our Service Department. 


Austin and Henry will be working at our Valparaiso store, and Blayne will be in Fowler. We are excited to have them on our team.

The John Deere Tech Program is a dealer-sponsored, education-led, 2-year program offered at select universities. If you or someone you know is interested in learning more about the program, please complete the form here.
