When Richard Amarosa founded Technology Education Concepts, Inc., back in 1987, he wanted to provide students in New Hampshire hands-on learning opportunities.

“He wanted to give students access to industrial materials, so that they had the hands-on training that’s actually being used in industry,” said Amarosa’s daughter, Justyn Constant, the senior vice president and marketing manager at Concord-based Technology Education Concepts, Inc. (TEC).
