AC Coin & Slot, a leader in proprietary leased bonusing slot machines, and exclusive distributor of IGTﾮ gaming devices in Atlantic City and the Caribbean, announced that it will donate four high-value slots to Atlantic Cape Community Collegeﾒs Casino Career Institute (CCI), located in downtown Atlantic City. The donation will take place at the Casino Career Institute, at ACCCﾒs Charles D. Worthington Atlantic City Campus, 1535 Bacharach Blvd., at 11 a.m., Wednesday, March 18.
AC Coin & Slotﾒs game donation will strengthen CCIﾒs comprehensive slot training facility with machines representing the most recent advances in slot technology and bonusing trends. CCIﾒs 375-hour slot technician training program prepares students for employment in the growing slot industry in casino hotels, cruise ships and resorts in the U.S. and abroad. Students receive hands-on training in the skills necessary to become a slot technician.
"Students educated at Atlantic Cape Community Collegeﾒs Casino Career Institute exemplify the very people we at AC Coin & Slot rely on to keep our machines operating in the finest casinos worldwide," said Mac Seelig, AC Coin & Slot Founder and President. "Experienced slot technicians are vital to our industry and many of the best become successful slot floor managers. With slots accounting for roughly 70 percent of the average casinoﾒs winnings, it is imperative that those training to become slot technicians are given the opportunity to learn on the most innovative slot machines available."
Dr. Peter Mora, Atlantic Cape Community College President said, "AC Coin and Slot has a longstanding collaborative relationship with Atlantic Cape Community College. Over the years, we have partnered together in meeting the workforce and educational needs of our service area. This generous donation exemplifies the partnership between ACCC and AC Coin and Slot and supports the efforts of the college to fulfill its legacy of truly serving as the 'community's college."
The AC Coin & Slot donation is yet another positive sign for the company, which recently announced a 79% increase in the number of its proprietary bonusing slot machines simultaneously leased and generating revenue throughout North America.
"We are delighted to provide the equipment necessary for CCI students to learn, grow, and succeed in the casino industry," said Seelig. "This is a win for the college, its students, and the gaming industry."
