Automotive School Programs

A career in the repair and technology industries provides you with several options. If you choose a program in automotive technology, you may want to specialize in a specific manufacturer's line of vehicles. This allows you to become very familiar with the ins and outs of a particular manufacturer's products and focus on a specific pool of drivers.

If you are interested in specializing in something besides cars, many schools offer programs in motorcycle technology, marine technology, truck and diesel technology, and even aviation technology. The field is very large, which allows you to find a program of your interest. 

Most programs can be completed in about a year. Manufacturer-specific programs and the aviation technology program can take significantly longer. When identifying a school to study at, be sure to thoroughly research the length of each school's program in the specific area you plan to study. Since there are usually many additional courses and electives available for the advanced student, you may want to make sure the timeline for your career plans coincides with your goal of getting the best education possible. 
We at Automotive Schools have put together summaries about each type of automotive program and what the curriculum usually entails. Good luck with your searching and your career choice!
