A Letter from Our Director
Welcome Future Students,
I am Alan Yoder the Director, Instructor and Owner here at Central Pennsylvania Diesel Institute (CPDI) . Prior to owning CPDI, I received a diploma majoring in Diesel Mechanics from Lincoln Technical Institute and attended Penn State University where I attained my Vocational II Professional Certificate in Diesel Mechanics. I had more than 10 years of employment in the field of diesel mechanics prior to being employed at a high school vocational school as the Diesel Mechanics Instructor. I remained an Instructor there for over 12 years. During my time as a teacher in this setting I developed the curriculum, evaluated and chose instructional materials, and created teaching modules as well as creating my own instructional materials. In 2005 I had the opportunity to purchase the school which is now known as ‘Central Pennsylvania Diesel Institute’.
I have a passion for teaching . I also enjoy sharing my skills, knowledge, and offering hands on experience to my students in the industry I know best. I take pride in the school as well as the students that enroll here. We offer a friendly environment for our students to grow to their fullest potential. Our program will give you all the knowledge and experience needed to obtain an entry -level position within the diesel mechanic field. I am excited to share this opportunity with each of you. Hope to see you as a student soon.
Sincerely,
The Director of Central Pennsylvania Diesel Institute
Alan Yoder
