| How do
I become an ASE Certified Automobile Technician? When you
pass one or more of the eight ASE tests AND meet the two-year experience
requirement, you become an ASE Certified Automobile Technician in
your field. When you pass all eight exams, you become an ASE Certified
Master Mechanic.

| How does the 2 year
experience requirement work? ASE requires that you have two
or more years of full-time, hands-on working experience either as
an automotive technician, engine machinist, or in body repair or
painting and refinishing for certification. However, you may take
the tests before you have two years of experience and you will receive
a score report. If you pass the test(s), you will be issued a certificate
after you have the required experience.

| How
do I get the experience requirement needed for ASE certification?
Each student is responsible for arranging and acquiring their own
hands-on work experience. There is no time limit for gaining the
experience requirement. Assabet makes no implied promise to place
students either during or after training.

| Will I receive
any credit toward the 2 year experience requirement for the courses
I take at Assabet?
You may receive up to one year’s worth of credit toward the
two year experience requirement for attending post-high school training
at a public vocational school like Assabet Valley. To have your
training considered as a substitute for work experience, you must
send a copy of your Assabet Course Certificates, grades, and registration
forms to the National Institute for ASE. The Institute reserves
the right to grant such credit as may be appropriate.

if I fail one of the ASE exams?
You may take the Assabet course for that exam over again for half
the tuition. You may also retake the specific ASE exam you failed
over again during any future test date, but you must register and
pay the appropriate fees.
