Hiring of Technicians

Overview

As a part of your curriculum, there may be times when you are assigned to drive production vehicles with FSUFILM equipment to various set locations. The College hires every student as a Technician to ensure that they are covered by our insurance if an accident were to occur. Students are also paid for any driving performed as a Technician.
