Are you interested in a highly technical and demanding career with many levels of professional certification and opportunities to succeed? The Auto Technology program at Donaldson Career Center can help you. Do you want a high-paying career with the opportunity to create a great life? We can help with this also. Come join our team. We at Donaldson Career Center are building the future employees of the upstate!

   This is a 2-year program that will teach you to properly identify, diagnose, and repair all major components of the automobile. We will also explore the future of the automobile which includes electric technology.   After 2 years of the program, you will have an understanding of the past and the future of automotive technology. It's my goal to produce qualified students who can go into the field or on to college with the ability to succeed in life!

   The first year will be a basic understanding of Shop Safety, Engine Repair, Brake System Components, Automatic and Manual Transmission,  Suspension Systems, Tire Repair, and Alignments. The second year will be a much more in-depth understanding of the  Electrical system, Hybrid and full Electrical technology,  HVAC, and Engine Performance. All of the standards come from the Automotive Program from iCEV. This is a completely online format with no textbooks.
