Holland College 

Automotive Technology Program

 

The integrated training model used in this program provides students 

 

with a coordinated pathway taking them from pre-apprenticeship training through to a Certificate of Qualification with Red Seal. It includes all aspects of program delivery including on campus training at Holland College and industry work placements. Under provincial legislation, registration as an apprentice working under the guidance of a journey-person or a Certificate of Qualification is compulsory for the trade of Automotive Service Technician.

 

 

The Automotive Technology program is designed to allow students to develop a strong foundation of skills through classroom, lab and shop learning activities. An automotive technician must be well versed in computers, mathematics, reading and communication skills along with skills specific to the trade, so adjunct studies are an integral part of the program.

 

 

The Automotive Technology program has attained national accreditation status from the Canadian Automotive Repair and Service Council (CARS) National Accreditation Board, (CNAB). This accreditation is recognized nationally as the benchmark for quality automotive programs.
