The increasing demand for automotive technicians combined with good salaries make this a career choice that neither students, parents nor guidance counselors should ignore. Good techs are scarce and if you have the aptitude to turn a wrench and fix things, plus education and ASE certification, chances are that will equal a very secure job. We have lots of help these days with training from vehicle manufacturers. In addition, lots of businesses will 'grow' their techs from apprentice to top tech. They can move on to management later, if that's what they're looking for.
Shops are more than willing to pay for qualified techs.
Besides, the country runs on its wheels. Their employers often display the blue and white ASE sign. Technology Dr., Suite 2, Herndon, VA 20171-3421. You may also view the brochure online by clicking here .
