'' The Automotive program is designed to prepare highly skilled technicians for an ever expanding and challenging automotive industry.

In 1986 the Automotive Technology program was awarded full Master Certification in all eight specialty areas from ASE. Continued Certification was awarded in 1998. Students work in the classroom, laboratories, and do practical job service.
