Whether you’re tired of making minimum wage or simply have a passion for working on cars, pursuing an automotive degree or certification shows employers you have a strong work ethic and the skills to succeed. But which school is right for you?
Choosing an automotive school with a smaller class size ensures students receive the attention they deserve and can quickly get hands-on experience in a shop. It also allows for better communication between the instructor and the students. When choosing a program, look for one that offers relevant academic courses like technical math and workforce communications to help you connect your automotive education to real-world skills.
Auto mechanic schools with a focus on practical learning provide hands-on training in a modern shop equipped with the tools and equipment technicians use at dealerships, repair shops, and service centers. These experiences turn lessons from the classroom into engine rumbles and teach students how to properly care for vehicles, perform routine maintenance, and troubleshoot when something goes wrong.
Additionally, a good automotive school will equip students with the latest diagnostic tools to help them master sophisticated diagnosing techniques. This helps them become more productive and efficient on the job, minimizing callbacks and maximizing client satisfaction. Some programs, such as the Bachelor’s Degree in Automotive Technology Supervision offered by University of Northwestern Ohio, even go beyond a mechanical education by adding advanced industry and business management classes. These courses prepare graduates for leadership roles in dealerships, garages, and service centers.
