What is an ASE Certified Technician?


What is an ASE Certified Technician? And what is the certification process?

The National Institute for Automotive Service Excellence (ASE) is a nonprofit corporation dedicated to improving the quality of automotive service and repair throughout the nation. ASE's main function is to test and certify technicians for automobile, medium/heavy truck, school bus, and collision repair/refinish technicians; engine machinists; and parts specialists.

The certification process includes a series of tests - conducted twice a year at various locations across the country - written to measure a technicians' knowledge of diagnostic and repair skills necessary for competent job performance. Based on the tests you take and pass will determine your level as a certified technician. For example, if you pass one or more tests in a particular series and meet the two-year experience requirement you become an ASE- Certified Technician in those areas, but if you pass all four tests in a particular series you become an ASE-Certified Master Technician.
