Dan Pacek has been a Senior Master Technician for 22 of his 30-year technician career. He started in 1992 and has garnered his Senior Master Technician status every year thereafter. Also, he is certified in electrical vehicles.
Frank Pacek started his technician career in 1985 and became a Senior Master Technician 14 years ago. He maintains his Senior Master Technician title year over year. Frank is certified in EV vehicles.
Senior Master Technician designation is reserved for technicians who have gone to the greatest length of the Ford Training Curriculum. All 3 technicians are very excited about their awards. They receive a plaque, a gold coin, and a recognition letter. Since the inception of this title designation in 1999, only a small percentage of technicians have achieved this level of accomplishment. Senior Master Technicians must renew their certification every year.
