ASE Certification
 Getting Your Credentials
The National Institute for Automative Service Excellence (ASE) was started in 1972 to provide consumers with a way to distinguish between incompetent and competent mechanics. People seeking quality auto service today look for ASE certification, and many companies will only hire ASE certified mechanics to work on their customers' vehicles or oversee such work. By getting an ASE certification, you'll get a powerful stamp of approval that could mean more customers or better employment prospects.
Taking the Test
An ASE Certification has two components: a test and proof of two years employment. You can take the test before you've got your two years, which might be a good idea since it's estimated that about one in three people taking the test don't pass the first time. The tests come in fourteen different "series." You choose the series for which you want certification. These are specialties like Automobile/Light Truck Certification (A Series), Alternate Fuels Series (F1), or Parts Specialist (P Series).
Know Your Stuff
Each ASE Certification test requires knowledge of different job-related skills. The A Series, for instance, looks to make sure that anyone passing the exam will be able to diagnose, service, and repair cars, SUV's, and light duty trucks. Within the A series, there are eight certification programs: Engine Repair, Automatic Transmission/Transaxle, Manual Drive Train and Axles, Suspension and Steering, Brakes, Electrical/Electronic Systems, Heating and Air Condition, and Engine Performance. In order to get an ASE Certification, you must pass at least one of these exams (in addition to the providing proof of two years' work experience.) |
