if he wants to wrench...MMI. you'd be surprised at how many factory team mechanics come up through MMI. i would also recommend he work at any local shop doing whatever they need him to do...sweep if necessary. just being in the environment is great training and opens doors if he's willing to work hard, learn, and be an asset to the shop. if he wants to own and run a shop he'll first need to know every job in the shop from sweeping to sales, to purchasing to promoting. it's a tough business to be completely frank. so it has to be a passion of his or it can grind you up and spit you out real fast. but if it is it can be a great career. i'd be happy to talk with him if i can help.
