ASE Student Certification can be thought of as the first step in
building a career as a service professional in the automotive
industry.
The test can provide you with your first industry-recognized
certification through the National Institute for Automotive
Service Excellence.
There are no work experience requirements for student
certification; the student simply needs to pass one or more of the
student certification tests.
Upon successful completion of an exam, the school prints the
certificate, has it signed by the school principal or proctor for
validation, and then awards it to the student.
Student certification is valid for two years from the date the test
was taken.
