Automotive Technology

Do you have what it takes to work on today’s high-tech vehicles? Automotive technicians must be as comfortable with computers as they are with wrenches. The vehicles rolling off the assembly line have multiple computers on board, and it takes a complex set of skills to keep them running safely, dependably, and efficiently.

In Perry Tech’s one-year Automotive Technology program, you will study theory and operation in the classroom and practice those techniques in a well-equipped shop. With a balance of mechanical and technical skills, the course prepares graduates to work as an entry-level automotive technician in dealerships, independent shops, parts supply houses, mobile services, fleet service shops and more.

Not sure that your schedule will allow for taking a full load of course work during the daytime? We have you covered with two offerings for this program with a day and night school option. The night course offered allows students to not only maintain their current life demands, but also provides a platform for those seeking to take their automotive skills to the next level.
