Why training for Auto Detailing in Vancouver is a great career choice

Have you ever wondered how the vehicles on used car lots all look so good? They have all been given a once over by an expert in auto detailing, known formally as “dealer preparation”. 

Experts in auto detailing are highly prized because they turn low-value cars and trucks into much higher value reconditioned vehicles. 

You will enjoy seeing the smiles on the face of customers when they see the results of your auto detailing. Or you can strike out on your own by establishing your own auto detailing business, an ideal choice if you have an entrepreneurial spirit and have always wanted to run your own business.

ATC's Automotive Detailing 2-week program offers a hands-on approach to learning that takes place, for the most part, in the shop. In fact, you will spend 85% in the shop gaining practical experience, the best approach because it gives you the confidence that you can perform in a real shop environment.  

Your instruction covers the essentials of preparing a car for the showroom floor and offers hands-on skills in exterior and interior maintenance for used automobiles. We also ensure you receive instruction on a wide variety of surfaces and materials, a key benefit because it widens your employment potential.

I searched for a school that could take me but the waiting list was too long. When I contacted ATC they tried very hard to get me into a class right away. It worked and I started immediately. The thing that impressed me was the shop was well equipped and neat. My instructor worked very hard at making sure we were all on the same page.

Before choosing an automotive school, I looked around on the Internet at all the different options. Just from the interviews on the ATC website, it seemed like a good place to go to learn about the automotive industry. So I called and got more information.

At the time I was living in Tillsonberg, Ontario. I was looking for a whole new experience; a new life and career. When I first arrived here I wasn’t sure what to expect. I was happy to find that the curriculum was good, and the teachers helped out all the time with their industry shop knowledge. Overall it was a good experience.

At ATC the classes are very hands-on. We worked on cars on the hoists instead of simulated machines. The theory classes were good too. The use of multimedia presentations with the instructors’ knowledge really helped me to understand whatever we were working on. It gave me a real solid start for achieving my goal of becoming a licensed mechanic.

ATC got me my first job in the automotive trade. I am in a nice shop that deals with older cars, muscle cars and hot rods. When I started I hardly knew anything about vehicles and now I’m confident to do any job that my employer wants me to do. I know that I am an asset to them.

My advice to all who are considering taking this course is that this is the best thing you can do. If you’re trying to start out in the automotive trade, you won’t be starting from scratch. It gives you a good foundation to start!
