As a student in this program, you will spend your first eight months in class learning your craft at our impressive training facilities at Ashtonbee Campus. Over the next eight months, you will apply what you have learned through a paid work placement as a registered apprentice at a TADA or FCA partnered dealership. You will spend your final eight months back at school preparing for a successful career in the automotive industry.
The in-school curriculum focuses on product description, operation, diagnostics and repair as it applies to the apprenticeship curriculum. You will also learn the management, customer service, English and general education skills you will need for a broad range of employment opportunities in the automotive field. Along with the classroom sessions, you will train and practice what you have learned on a wide range of automobiles and components in fully equipped automotive labs. Additional technical lessons include access to factory training from the college's various partners (as applicable), Advanced Diagnostics, Hybrid and Alternate Fuel Training are also part of the program. |
