How Automotive Technician Certification works

  • The Auto Mechanic Certification (Apprenticeship) has 4 levels
  • Each Level is approximately 180 hours of complementary training
  • A total of 6480 hours of paid, on the job experience with an employer, is also needed to obtain your trade certificate
  • You will need to pass practical assessments and a written exam at each level

In Canada the Auto Mechanic Career is a recognized trade which means that Auto Mechanic professionals, whom have obtained their status of journeymen, are able to obtain a “Red Seal” endorsement on their Certificate of Qualification. They will need to successfully complete an Inter-Provincial Standards Exam and have the correct amount of documented work based hours.

Canadian Automotive Technicians with a Red Seal designation can work anywhere in Canada. A huge and ongoing demand exists throughout North America.

Raveendran Pathmaraj Automotive Service Technician

I like how the course was only 6 months and covered everything I needed to know. People at L’École de L’Automobile are very friendly and are always ready to help. If you are a person who is very motivated and has the inspiration to learn about automobiles, you should go there. My program gave me the edge and the confidence that I needed to join the workforce. The benefits are very good, as whenever I need anything more after I graduated they are still willing to help me.

I would definitely recommend this school because of its 6months intense course and it has great curriculum modules, it gets us ready for the workforce. In the end, I felt even though I was in school, I was still having a great time learning.
