Moultrie Tech Automotive Program Receives National Certification
MOULTRIE, GA. The Automotive Technology program at Moultrie Technical College has received certification by NATEF and the National Institute for Automotive Service Excellence (ASE).
To achieve this coveted recognition, the college’s automotive training program underwent rigorous evaluation by the national Automotive Technicians Education Foundation (NATEF). Nationally accepted standards of excellence in areas such as instruction, facilities and equipment were used.
“This is great news for automotive-minded young people and their parents,” said Donald Seyfer, NATEF chair. “Because this program increases cooperation between local education and industry leaders, it gives added assurance that Moultrie Tech’s graduates will be employable entry-level technicians. As a result of the quality education provided by Moultrie Tech, the motoring public will benefit since better repair technicians will join the workforce.”
Upon completion of the evaluation, NATEF recommended that Moultrie Tech be certified by the National Institute for Automotive Service Excellence (ASE). ASE is a national non-profit organization which tests and certifies repair technicians, in addition to certifying automotive training programs.
Lynn T anner, MTC automotive technology instructor added, “During the past few months, we have worked closely with NATEF to make certain that our program would meet strict industry standards, and now we are delighted to join the ranks of the ASE certified training programs. Students will be assured of a quality education, and shop owners will be assured of getting quality job applicants.”
