ATC automobile schools in Vancouver put you on the fast track to apprenticeship
In British Columbia, graduates of a Foundation program like ATC’s Automotive Wheel Alignment and Brake Service Technician can receive recognition for their training. They first need to contact the Industry Training Authority (ITA) and they may receive credits for hours worked with the number of hours credited at the discretion of the employer.
The Automotive Wheel Alignment and Brake Service Technician occupation is a trade recognized by British Columbia’s Industry Training Authority.
The Interprovincial Standards "Red Seal" Program defines an apprenticeship as "An agreement between a person (an apprentice) who wants to learn a skill and an employer who needs a skilled worker -- "earning while learning."
Apprenticeship is a proven industry-based learning system that combines on-the-job experience with technical training and leads to certification as a journeyperson. On completion of the training period, apprentices receive a Certificate of Qualification. On average, 85% of the apprentice's two to five years of training is spent in the workplace; the rest is spent at a training institution."

I decided to look into training for auto-body. I looked around and found ATC. They were able to get me in right away and I found that I was learning more than some of the people who took the same course elsewhere. Today I manage the auto-body shop at Uniglobe.

With the I.C.B.C. changes and all that we need more estimators. Mercedes recommended that I take the course on estimating do to the fact that we will be going express. I took the course and it helped me quite a bit. I recommend anyone who wants to get into estimating to take the course.
