Education & Training
To work as an automotive service technician, automotive collision repair technician (motor vehicle body repairer) or automotive painting and refinishing technician in B.C., it is compulsory to be certified in the trade or to be registered in a four-year apprenticeship (automotive service technicians, automotive collision repair technicians) or a two-year apprenticeship (automotive painting and refinishing technicians) that will lead to certification.
While it is not necessary to complete an apprenticeship to work as a commercial transport vehicle mechanic, a four-year apprenticeship is available. To work as an automatic transmission service technician, automotive electrical technician, commercial trailer mechanic or automotive electrical and tune-up technician, a three-year apprenticeship is generally completed.
Recommended education before starting an apprenticeship is grade 12 or equivalent, with appropriate English, Math and Science courses.
Most apprenticeships include some amount of in-school technical training, which is available at most colleges, technical institutes or training schools in B.C. Completion of an accredited entry-level program is strongly recommended before beginning an apprenticeship in commercial transport vehicle mechanics.
Upon completion of an apprenticeship, automotive service technicians, automotive painting and refinishing technicians and automotive collision repair technicians must pass an interprovincial standards examination to receive a Certificate of Apprenticeship and a Certificate of Qualification with an interprovincial Red Seal endorsement. All others in this category receive a Certificate of Apprenticeship upon completion of the apprenticeship.
For people who have worked for a long time as commercial transport vehicle mechanics but have never completed an apprenticeship, a Certificate of Qualification is available. The certificate is awarded following submission of evidence of six years full-time experience in the trade and successful completion of an exam.
Current details regarding apprenticeship training can be found at http://www.learnandearn.bc.ca/learnandearn.htm.
Entry-level training programs in Automotive Mechanics and Auto Body Repair/Refinishing are available at the British Columbia Institute of Technology and several colleges and university colleges in the province. Completion of an entry-level program may give students some credits towards the technical training part of an apprenticeship. For complete program information refer to Education Planner (http://www.educationplanner.bc.ca) and perform a Program Search using the subject heading "Auto Mechanics Related" or "Auto Collision Repair Related."
As well, there are programs available for those who do not intend to pursue apprenticeship training. As computer systems become more common in automobiles, the demand for people trained in electronic or computer based repair will increase as will their earning potential. In addition to the many automobile mechanics programs with courses in electrical systems offered in the province, BCIT offers an Automotive Electronics Technician Certificate. This program is also detailed under the Subject heading "Auto Mechanics" in Education Planner.
Completion of a Heavy Duty Mechanic related entry-level trades training program grants students exemption from the Heavy Duty Entry exam if an apprenticeship is started within 12 months of completion. Heavy Duty entry-level trades training programs are offered by BCIT and several colleges and university colleges in the province. Sometimes these programs are combined with a Commercial Transport Mechanic program option enabling graduates to choose their preferred apprenticeship. In the case of the General Mechanics program at Selkirk College students have the option of pursuing an automotive, heavy duty or commercial transport mechanic apprenticeship on program completion. For complete program information on theabove offerings refer to Education Planner and perform a Program Search using the Subject heading "Heavy Equipment Maintenance & Repair."
Some of the skills required for these workers include physical fitness and strength, manual dexterity and mechanical aptitude. Skills in diagnostics and damage evaluation as well as customer relations are important. An interest in computer and electrical work is helpful. To remain competitive, all these workers require continual upgrading of skills in order to respond to changes in technology |
