Automotive Technology Internship

This course is designed to allow qualifying students to apply the skills they havelearned in the classroom by interning at a dealership service center or at a localrepair shop in the community. The first three weeks of the course will take place oncampus and will address shop safety, setting expectations for placement ininternship sites and scheduling. Students will then report to their host repair facilitiesto perform tasks typically done in a real automotive shop environment, which include,but are not limited to, interpreting and writing repair orders, use of service informationsystems, general automotive repairs and customer service. Periodic evaluations forstudent progress will take place on site by a designated faculty or staff member, andthose evaluations will be factored into the mid-term and final evaluations of thecourse. This internship is considered to be an excellent practical experience forpreparation for the Automotive Service Excellence (ASE) G1 exam. The internshipwill consist of 50 hours of in-shop work, spread over a 12 week period. (This onecredit course can replace either the Music or Art requirement for the AutomotiveProgram.)
