The ASE Education Foundation has partnered with several companies, including Mercedes, Ford and General Motors, to offer free online learning resources for its auto, truck and collision instructors and students.
“Our partners have provided a wide range of training resources and classes that not only help students with their classroom work, but also help prepare them for ASE Entry-Level Certification tests," said Mike Coley, ASE Education Foundation president.
Many car manufacturers and auto parts suppliers are offering free online training, including recent partners Carquest Technical Institute (CTI) and Worldpac Training Institute (WTI) which are giving ASE instructors unlimited access to their virtual classroom events. This allows career and technical instructors to share the information with their students.
Through Daimler Truck’s Get Ahead program, schools can have access to curriculum anytime. Schools with an ASE Accredited truck program can have free access to the curriculum and earn a system certification that is recognized at any of Daimler's 770 network locations.
WD-40 is offering their course on cleaning, storage and maintenance of tools and equipment. Instructors will learn valuable tips on how to clean and maintain tools along with the safety hazards of poor maintenance.
The Truck-Lite Training Institute is a free online series of technical courses that have been developed to educate and train the highest caliber technicians and parts associates. The program consists of training modules focused on product knowledge, technical expertise, diagnostics and systems solutions.
“We can’t thank these companies and organizations enough for making their online educational offerings available to our ASE instructors,” said Coley.
