WHAT DOES IT TAKE TO BECOME AN ASE-MASTER CERTIFIED TECHNICIAN?

by Mechanics Direct January 1, 2019

Finding an effective, reliable auto repair shop can be tricky. How can you tell from one shop to another? ASE Certification is a leading indicator of well-trained, high-quality auto mechanics like those at Mechanics Direct in Lowell, MA.

ASE stands for Automotive Service Excellence, a professional certification from The National Institute for Automotive Service Excellence in the U.S. and parts of Canada. The non-profit organization protects consumers through the promotion of excellence in vehicle repair through education and testing.

Candidates for ASE-Certification must have a two-year degree in automotive repair and at least one year of on-the-job-training, or two years of on-the-job-training, and they must pass rigorous testing. The test can be tough. In fact, one out of every three auto mechanics fail the test the first time around.

ASE-Certification must be renewed every five years to keep up with advancing automotive technology.
