Catalog Description

This is an Associate Degree to compliment the certificate with a focus on Smog Technician within the Automotive pathway. New students entering either option are encouraged to consider taking preparation classes in automotive theory and computer skills before enrolling in the regular required courses for the certificate. This is intended to assure successful performance in the required courses unless students have received prior training or education related to the recommended courses that would fulfill preparation expectations. These courses may normally be available in sequential patterns that would allow completion of the certificates within a two year time frame. Students will be responsible for providing their own textbooks, personal safety equipment, protective clothing, a basic hand tool set and project related materials. The cost of these items will vary according to place of purchase.
