The National Institute for Automotive Service Excellence (ASE) Entry-Level certification tests are designed to indicate a satisfactory level of practical knowledge-based readiness for the workforce in candidates seeking a career in the automotive service industry. ASE Entry-level certification is the first step in building career credentials as an automotive service professional.
S/P2 training is used by more than 225,000 students and employees every year. S/P2 safety and environmental industry-specific training is 100% online, ensuring students learn about workplace safety and compliance with OSHA and EPA—before they step into the work area.
The ASE Education Foundation is a non-profit organization that evaluates and accredits entry-level automotive technology education programs against standards developed by the automotive service industry. It also develops career-readiness education for students which fuse local partnerships, rigorous standard-based education, workplace experience, and mentorship together.
