About the data on this page

Program completions are from federal IPEDS data (2024), the most recent government release. This school has not yet claimed its profile to add current details.

Before enrolling anywhere, verify the school's current license status with the Texas Workforce Commission, ask for total program cost in writing (tuition, fees, books, and tools), and request the most recent completion and job placement numbers with their source.

What automotive technology training qualifies you to do

No state license required; ASE certifications are the currency. Entry-level dealership and shop roles are attainable without school — what a program buys is faster ASE readiness and manufacturer relationships. Ask which ASE exams the curriculum maps to.

Lube tech, dealership technician trainee, collision repair assistant
Applies to automotive technology training generally in Texas — program specifics vary by school. Licensing summary: Auto techs aren't state-licensed in Texas, but ASE certifications are the industry standard employers look for. Manufacturer-sponsored programs can also lead directly to dealership jobs.

Questions to ask this school before enrolling

Get every answer in writing: total program cost including fees, books, tools, and exam fees · program length in clock hours and calendar weeks · day/evening/weekend schedule options · the next three start dates · completion rate and licensing-exam pass rate, with the year and source · externship or job-placement support and what "placement" means · refund policy if you withdraw · and what happens in the first 48 hours after you apply. A school that answers quickly and in writing usually runs its training the same way.
