Automotive Service Mechanic Career Required Training
Most employers prefer to hire those who've completed formal training programs in high school or in a postsecondary vocational school. However some workers still learn the trade solely by assisting and learning from experienced workers.
Many high schools, community colleges and public and private vocational and technical schools offer automotive service technician training programs. Traditional postsecondary programs tend to provide a thorough career preparation that expands on the student's high school repair experience.
Postsecondary automotive technician training programs vary, but they normally provide intensive career preparation with a combination of classroom instruction and hands-on practice. Some trade and technical school programs provide concentrated training for six months to a year. Community college programs typically spread the training over two years and supplement the automotive training with other subjects, awarding an associate degree or certificate.
