21st Century Automotive Career Training For Today’s Students

The demand for certified PDR Technicians in the US remains high.  Search any job site and you’ll see hundreds of listings for technicians to earn $30,000 to $65,000+ a year.

High school courses in automotive repair, electronics, computers, and mathematics provide a good background for prospective service technicians. However, high school graduates typically need further training to become fully qualified.

Completing a vocational or other postsecondary education program in automotive service technology is considered the best preparation for entry-level positions.

Employers prefer that automotive service technicians and mechanics complete a formal training program at a postsecondary institution. Industry certification is usually required once the person is employed.
