Automotive Service Technology Students complete courses that cover all eight A.S.E. certification areas, and all aspects of light-duty automotive service as related to professional repair facilities (new-car dealer) needs. This program does not cover any body or paint work. The last core class of the program is a full-time (40 hours/week) internship at a new-car dealership. The Automotive Service Technology program is only available at our Automotive Campus.
Moore Tech’s Automotive Service Technology program is a two-year program that teaches students everything necessary for employment as a technician at any GMADA member new car dealership. It also allows technicians to expand their knowledge and training using the latest technology while earning an Associate Degree or Diploma. Auto body and paint are not part of this program.
In the Degree program, each student takes one automotive class (12 credit- hours each) and one general education class (3 credit-hours each) every term until the last term. Students begin a co-op position at GMADA member new car dealerships starting the third term. The last term is a full-time internship (12 credit-hours) at a GMADA member new car dealership. A total of six automotive classes and five general education classes are required for an Associate Degree (87 credit-hours total).
Students in the Diploma program follow the same schedule described above, but are not required to take general education courses.
Students in the Auto Service Technology programs must:
- Have a valid driver’s license and a driving record to specific standards.
- Pass a background check, insurance requirements, drug tests and other specific requirements of the dealership.
