Welcome to East Central Community College's Automotive Mechanics Technology program. The automotive profession offers a variety of career opportunities for individuals with the appropriate intellectual and mechanical skills. Our program is designed to assist you in your pursuit of a prosperous and rewarding career in the Automotive Service sector.

The Automotive Mechanics Technology curriculum is built around the eight Automotive Service Excellence (ASE) certification areas - engine repair, electrical and electronic systems, engine performance, brakes, steering and suspension systems, manual drivetrains and axles, automatic transmissions and transaxles, and heating & air conditioning. The course is an articulated technical program designed to provide advanced and technical skills to students. Baseline competencies, taken from the secondary automotive mechanics curriculum framework, serve as a foundation for the competencies and suggested objectives taught in the courses of the program. Students who do not possess these competencies will be allowed to acquire them during the program. Students who can document mastery of the baseline competencies will receive advanced instruction on these topics. While enrolled in our program, you will have the opportunity to train with professional level tools and equipment, including the same computer resources and computerized diagnostic tools that many automotive repair businesses use. As a full time student you can take advantage of the major tool manufacturer’s (Snap-On©, Matco©, and Mac© for example) discounts on many of their hand tools and tool storage solutions. As an automotive technology student, you would be required to purchase your own set of tools – taking advantage of this educational discount can save you thousands on your investment.

Without electricity, the world would be dark due to little or no lighting and be difficult to survive in due to climate control. The world would also be without most forms of long-distance transportation and communication. To keep the world running on electricity the world requires electrical workers more specifically known as ELECTRICANS!

Electricians not only install and maintain power lines, but they help to set up the entire electrical system starting with the power plants where electricity is generated and ending with the machines that use the electricity. Electricians keep electrical systems working properly and keep the deadly current safely insulated from human contact.

Electricians can be employed by industries both large and small, by electrical power companies, and in the construction industry.

Electrical workers have very strenuous and sometimes stressful jobs. The work requires standing for long periods of time and performing manual labor. They often work in dirty and confined environments, which may also be hot, cold, wet, or subjected to any number of adverse conditions. Electrical systems are often outside of climate controls because they are outside of the areas of normally occupied by people. Electrical workers also rick serious injury and even death due to electrocution.
