Oakland Community College Offers Computer-Based Automotive Certification Exams
 

Oakland Community College has been selected to administer computer-based Automotive Service Excellence (ASE) certification exams.  Testing will be offered in January and February at the Auburn Hills Campus M-TEC Building’s ACT Center, Room 102.

 

Providing the ASE exams in computer-based form benefits automotive technicians by allowing more scheduling flexibility – including weekend options.  Technicians also get immediate feedback on their scores.

 

A total of 20 ASE exams will be available at Oakland Community College in computer-based format.  The three areas include Automobile Technician, Advanced Engine Performance Specialist, and Automobile Parts Specialist.

 

ASE certification is a professional credential recognized in many automobile maintenance and repair organizations.  Today, more than 400,000 ASE-certified professionals work in dealerships, service stations, collision repair shops, auto parts stores, machine shops, schools, and other institutions throughout the country.

 

Registration for the first round of tests continues until February 7.  Testing will be available from January 20 through February 15.  To register for the exams, call ASE’s toll-free number – (800) 525-6929.  For more information call the ASE Help Desk at (319) 337-1433 or visit the ASE web site at www.ase.com/cbt.

 

Oakland Community College’s ACT Center offers computer-based certification and licensure, skill testing, and training services to individuals looking to boost their employability.  For more information about the ACT Center, call (248) 232-4000.

 

The Auburn Hills Campus is located at 2900 Featherstone Road, approximately one mile east of the Pontiac Silverdome.
